Wow....

Ok translation:

Hi, I'm having trouble changing my fuel filter. The nut on the fuelline is stripped/stuck. Has anyone had this problem? What can I do to get the nut off and or replace it? If I need to replace it, is it all one long pipe or are there several smaller parts? What is my best option, I have an RD2.

thanks for the translation but yes what you have said is right. however the filter has been changed but i feel the same problem will diffently occur next time as the nut is not in good condition i need to replace that nut which is on the fuel line. am i right in saying it cant just be removed as the pipe is flared at the end is this true? any options. i know its been replaced so its ok but i dont want a bodge jobs so i aint it correcting and help guy or girls thanks

^^ You can cut the pipe, put another nut on it, and buy/rent a flaring tool. I don't know whether it is a double or single flare. Your other option it to replace the line. Go with number one if need be... And honestly, just be gentle with it so you DONT have to replace it.
