fuel line fun.. :/
Hey all, this all started when I replaced my fuel filter and stripped the threads on the ^*%*#$^@$ input line's bolt. Anyways after searching junkyards and trying to get the bolt matched I ended up buying the whole line for 46$ from the dealership. Now since I paid 46$ for it i dont want to just cut it, take the bolt, and use a compression joint to attach it on the end like I originally planned. I DID NOT PAY 46$ for a new bolt...lol :/. Anyways for anyone who hasn't done it, replacing the input fuel line is a bitch. Extremely hard to remove clips holding it up, and a really fuggin rusted bolt where it goes into the fuel tank. I took some pictures so you guys might be able to help me out.
Here is this bracket that im having the most trouble with.

I'm thinking im just gonna hack and drill that bolt out, and as for the rest of that covering, hack and pry it out as well. Unless anyone knows how to get the fucker off the right way.

And here is the rusted on bolt that goes to the fuel tank, i've been soaking it in pb blaster frequently over the past 2 days but it still wont budge and the wrench alwys slips so i use gripping pliers.
