Default 1993 240 fuel filter

I recently acquired a 1993 240 wagon (my 5th Volvo). 130,000 miles, slightly neglected, but overall in great shape. I'm learning that just about every component on it appears to be original.

I'm trying to change the fuel filter and can't (yet) get it loose. I loosened the fuel filler cap to reduce pressure and disconnected the battery. I can get a good grip on the filter housing and nut, but it won't budge. Any suggestions?[:@]

I used adjustable on filter hex and wrench on banjo bolt. Give it a shot of PB Blaster that stuff is magic.

Default '93 240 wagon

I found the main fuel filter, on drivers side just forward of rear tire bolted to floor
I'll change it in the AM.
BTW The filter was $26.00 at NAPA & $18.00 at Checker except checker was out of stock. FYI
