Re: [ST] Fuel leak - again



Any hints or suggestions for pulling this fitting out and putting the tape
on?  Better to do with an empty or close to empty tank of gas?  Do you
disconnect the line and then unscrew the fitting, put the tape on, and then
reinstall?  Would love to get this done at home if I can save the time of
multiple trips to the dealer since they are a  240 mile round trip away from
me.
