    From the original thread:

    I was aware of the write up here on GPF that walks you through changing o-rings for a GTP, but was unclear on where exactly to pick up the o-rings.
    Looks like the guy who can't read is hereeeeeeeeeee too.

    Just finished replacing my O rings on my fuel fittings. The hardest part was removing the black plastic retainer in the fitting. I used a paint can opener and it worked pretty well. Only problem I had was that when I pulled out the black retainer, it resisted at first, and then "popped" out, and flew across my garage. Luckily, I found it. Putting the new "O" rings in was easy. And, no fuel leaks after re-assembly.
    Thanks for the write-up on this...it really helped...

    yeah, definatetly don't put so much force into getting the retainer out that you make it go somewhere u cant find. Mine just popped out on one side, so i knew it was close to coming out, so i was gentle working it out. also, it helps to put a giant cloth or something across the top of the engine bay so it doesnt fall down in the engine somewhere
