Hi There
I was looking to change the Diesel filter on my 2009 Accord following this guide:
http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/9049-diy-8th-gen-idtec-diesel-fuel-filter-change/
All went well until I went to remove the bolt holding the hose to the cap. It has been rounded, I am able to grip it with plyers but it is in very tight and there is not much working room (even with the cross member and fuse box out). I am not sure what to try next, I can't heat it as the housing is plastic and full of fuel and there’s no room to get power tools in?
I did think about cutting the cap round the bolt as it is plastic but I would need a replacement cap?
