Changed my fuel filter today. I change it between 25000-30000. Let the car sit overnight and there was no pressure on the lines. Approximately 6 oz of fuel streamed from the hoses and the filter. I just used a pan to catch it and waited for it to drain before removing the filter all the way out. Here are a couple of pics I took. The first one is before doing anything and the second is with the hosed detached and filter removed. The clips come out easy, just use a screw driver to go under the duckbill. While prying up with the screwdriver, push the bottom of clips open with your other hand. Installation back is a breeze, just remember what the orientation of the clips were and you won't have to guess which hole what goes in
Very easy protection and performance keeper for less than $8 with tax.

Nice pics, Glowstang.
We often overlook those fuel filters since they're out of sight.
That Reef Blue really pops.
One of the best looking colors Ford has ever used, IMHO.

Yea, the reef blue seems to be one of them colors thats not the basic, but a color that doesn't make you spew lol.
The pics do show some rust. I was getting depressed under the car, but really for being almost 14 yrs old, there really isn't that much or that bad. The fuel filter bracket sure was though
