The nuts* on the fuel line were corroded worse than the ones on the filter, which answers the question of why they were so hard to get out when the filter's nuts looked so clean.
Now I'm just being lazy, sitting here instead of getting outside to get on it. It's not raining right now.
*: Or whatever you call them; they're shaped like nuts but have male threads...through this whole thread it hasn't occured to me that they'd not be called ntus.

sweet. when we were wiring up the fuel pump on the 86 (which on 3rd and 4th gen camaros had the fuel pump pos, ground, and sending unit wiring running thru the cabin and exiting behind the rear seat where there was a harness connector next to the tank), well Josh went to wire everthing up to our home-made switch box.... and ended up wiring the pump to itself.
