Replacing Fuel Filter

[Uncle FooFoo]

I need to replace the fuel filter on my 266xp.Normaly this is an easy task.Not today.The fuel line is short and I am not able to put the filter in the end of the line.Any suggestions on how to do this?I think that I can with a longer pair of needle nose pliers.Thank you.Uncle FooFoo

Why not solve the problem permanently and just get a new length of fuel line that is long enough to easily work with for future filter changes?
