- this sounds like a lot of work when compared to what you guys are talking about... a quick on & off replacement???
Sorry things didn't go well for you. Just some questions and notes. Did you crank the engine after pulling the fuse?
Did you remove the plastic hairpin clips at the ends fo the fuel filters? And as for the clamp, install a plastic tie and you won't have do deal with stripped threads or rusty clamps.
