There is a "banjo" nut on the top of the filter housing, place a rag over it and loosen it gradually to bleed off the pressure.
Take the gas cap off and relieve the pressure on the tank. There will still be a little pressure in the lines but not so much. Wear eye protection . Good luck.
Remove the gas cap. If you do not hear the pressure release, then press the shrader valve located on the fuel rail.
Fuel tank must relieve pressure before you remove it.
Near the rear of the vehicle up near the gas tank; RELIEVE FUEL PRESSURE FIRST BEFORE REMOVING THE FILTER!!!
on my 1994 ford ranger, i just removed the holding rings on each end of the in and out line very slowly until the pressure was released. you will get a bit of gas spray but nothing serious. hope this helps. fordman.
No, you do not have to and in some cases you cannot. Unless your car has a fuel rail pressure relief valve, you can only be prepared for the spray of fuel when you disconnect the filter.
it isn't necessary to relieve any pressure prior to replacing the fuel filter on the 2005 Impala, however be mindfull of the gas tha is in the lines and in the filter when it comes off
Look for a Schrader valve on the fuel rail and press it to relieve pressure. If there is not one remove the fuel cap and then be prepared for a small spray of fuel when you disconnect the filter. Place a rag around the connection before disconnecting it.
the fsm says to pull the fuel pump relay, then start the car. i have NEVER got this to work. i leave the car sit for at least overnite, then use rags to catch the excess fuel
fuel filter is located in front on right rear wheel mounted to the frame. bleed fuel pressure before changing it

Should be behind the gas tank. Make sure you relieve the fuel pressure before you disconnect it. You can relieve the fuel pressure by removing the fuse for the fuel pump (f/p)and turning the car over.
