Default fuel filter help/tricks

So I'm swapping out my fuel filter, and obviously the turbo model has to have a powersteering/clutch valve block basically right where the wrench needs to be.

I can get a wrench on it, but it simply wants to twist the fuel line.

Anybody have any tips on making this easier?

Thanks.

I don't remember it being that bad. Just use two wrenches on each end (one on the filter and one on the line - stagger them by 20 degrees or so and squeeze them together)

got it figured out. Loosened the rear one first. then turned the filter and just held the fuel line fitting.

not pretty, but its done.
