Do you change the fuel filter?
Do you change the fuel filter and at how many miles? I checked out the filter today and it looks pretty straight forward except one thing: How do you remove the fuel feed pipe from the outlet connection? The service manual only says to disconnect it but doesn't say how. Thanks for replies in advance.

You need a fuel line disconnect tool, I don't remember the size but it is really small.

AutoZone carries the plastic tool. Very inexpensive. I saw them on the rack last time I was there.......... $10
Just make sure you get the correct tool for GM, as there were about 15 different models to choose from.
