fuel question

[mohog]

how do you take off a stock fuel filter on a 94 explorer? does it take a special tool? thanks in advance.

I would THINK it uses the same tool as a newer Explorer.. its $4-5 at an auto parts store. You CAN get the clips off without, but its more than $5 PITA from what Ive seen

Yes, you need to use the tool. Not very expensive as stated above.

The tool is a PITA to use though...
