you do plan on changing the filter correct -- steve williams i want to do a flush of my transmission fluid. but i have in my lifetime twisted one too many transmission lines when i attempt to remove it. i own the right tools flare nut wrenches but i somehow ended up kinking the line once... or twice... i dont want to do it again. i only do this once in a blue moon so i cant always remember how to do it. do you a keep the inner nut stationary and then move the outer nut doesnt seem right b keep the large outer nut stationary and then try to twist the smaller inner nut seems more right c do some combination of the above to un-jam the double nut so that it turns freely that is first losen the big nut then losen the smaller nut so that you can eventually spin both. actually seems right oh and which one is the return line on a 46re whenever the odds are 50/50 i always get it wrong. if i ask it is usually easier. thanks for the help. ----== posted via feeds.com - unlimited-uncensored-secure usenet ==---- http//www.feeds.com the #1 group service in the world! 120000+ groups ----= east and west-coast server farms - total privacy via encryption =---- .
