locate the fuel pressure valve. This in near the fire wall right behind the intake manifold. It looks like a valve stem like on your tire. unscrew the cap and hook up a fuel pressure guage. use the guage to drain the fuel. If you dont have one, place a lot of shop towels around it and use something that wont cause a spark to depress the nipple. do this until no fuel comes out. Also remember to unscrew the gas cap to relieve any pressure in the gas tank. I also suggest that you buy a haynes manual which will explain everything to you with pictures. You can pick one up for about 20 bucks at a local auto parts store. This is my bible for my 97 z28.

You don't. Just make sure the key is not on (best to not have it in the ignition at all) When you loosen the fuel filter, the pressure will relieve by leaking on the ground. Expect less than a half cup of fuel to leak out from pressure. The remainder fuel will be from inside the filter housing. Get ready to get your hands soaked in gasoline. Dont listen to that guy.

Some fuel will still leaks out from the fuel filter but at least it's not going to spray on your face.
