On a cold engine I unhook the battery ground and then (if you are changing a fuel filter) just loosen it to relieve pressure. No matter where you relieve pressure, there will be spillage so use a drip pan. As long as the battery is disconnected the chance of fire is greatly reduced. There is a schrader valve on the fuel line on the engine for this purpose, but that can make a much worse mess cause it runs all over the engine.The MOST important thing is to disconnect the battery.

The high pressure fitting is the larger of the two. The adapters and fittings used to add refrigerant can only fit the low pressure side. I have a 2003 Silverado 2500HD and the low pressure port is just above the accumulator/ dryer on a line that attaches to the fire wall.

Goto the Fuel rail under the hood. it sits on the passenger side of the engine. It will have a black cap on it. NOT the A/c line. it's on the Fuel line. remove the cap and it looks like a tire value stem. Push it in and the pressure will be released.
