Anyone know how to take off the fuel filter on a 2005 25hp 2 stroke? I tried to unscrew it but it's either on there really tight or it doesn't unscrew.

did you get it off? I was wondering the same thing. mine is really tight or im doing something wrong. scared to put to much pressure on it for fear of breaking it

It unscrews, there is a rubber o-ring on the top of the bowl thats keeping it from unscrewing easily....it's not on there really tight. Hold the top plate of the filter steady, then wrap the bowl in something so you can get some grip and unscrew it with the other hand. It will come loose, like spinning off a old oil filter, hard at first but once it breaks free it's golden.
