I remove the fuel pump fuse or relay while the engine is running. The engine will run until the pressure has dropped. Leave the fuse or relay out until you have finished replacing the fuel filter.

Release the fuel pressure by opening the gas cap first, than pull the fuse for the fuel pump. Start the car, it will sputter and die from lack of fuel pressure...now safe to change out the fuel filter. I'm not a safety freak...but let me advise wearing safety googles.
