Nope. All lines are good. The key was 2 days of PB blaster. I'd say I did 10 solid applications.

This thread inspired me to crawl under m 97 C1500 work truck with the original fuel filter in it yet. I went to the local auto store today, got a new filter and armed with only a 20mm open end wrench and a 16mm open end wrench I proceeded to attempt to remove my lines. My filter and fittings were much worse than shown above and with a little force everything still came loose. No lubricants or fancy wrenches of any kind. However one of my fittings are frozen to the fuel line so I had to undo and move one of the lines, then spin the filter off of it that way Put my new filter on and couldn't tell a damn bit of difference. Oh well, it was 120K miles and 12 years on the original filter, we'll do the same for the 2nd one
