i got the car jacked up, tire off.. but the filter is behind this hard
plastic panel that i cannot remove. its an 87 CRX HF. also, the service
manual says taht i need to relive fuel pressure by turning the service nut
1/2 rotation. how is this accomplished with that hard plastic panel in the
way? TIA, you guys are the best!

ok, i got both filters replaced AND i managed to get gas to the car!
unfortunatly, i flooded the carb/engine with gas, so i gotta wait till it
dries up before i can give it another go. i do have this question though:

there is a brass-coloured pipe-thing sticking out of the carb, that when i
gave the car gas while it was on, gas spewed out of this pipe. the gas wasnt
clear, but a brown-ish colour. would this be why the car isnt starting now?
the gas was sitting in the tank for 4 years.. but that gas was drained and
new stuff was put in. i also put in HEET to get rid of any water in there
and help clear the gas lines up. anything else i should be doing? thanks for
the input!
