Fuel filter replacment

Hello,
I've been to other posts and I completely understand how to change it. The thing I don't get it is: In between the feul filter and the gas tank is a black box. I need to remove it in order to turn a wrench on the filter. That filter is so far up that if I can get a wrench on the nut I couldn't turn it. Any help on this would be great.
Thanks,
Tom

Re: Fuel filter replacment

That is the evaporative charcoal cannister used for the evaporative emissions system and it can be removed to get more access to replacing the fuel filter.
