First of all I know this procedure is for a 1996 Mazda B2300 pickup which I own.There are two clamps(fasteners) to the fuel filter. The rearward one has a plastic safety clip that must be removed before the line and filter can be separated. You can use a screwdriver to pry off the plastic clip,while simletaneously spreading the "forks" of that plastic safety clip. You can buy another safety clip ant any auto parts store. Btw,if you cant manage to "spread the forked end of that clip,just pry it off and break it. Now, the front side of the filter(towards the engine) has an entirely different fastening clip. It has a metal "holding clip" to help keep the line from separating from the filter. You must first pry off this metal "holding clip" which is usually tethered to the fuel line itself via a short plastic or metal wire,to keep it from being lost. You will re-use this clip! Now you MUST use a special tool,available on loan to you for free from the auto parts store to separate the line from the filter. It is called a fuel line/ a/c line removal tool. It simply clips around the line then you push it inwards towards the filter to release the spring inside the locking mechanism. while doing this,you simply pull apart the line from the filter.
