I did a search for this but it didnt answer my question which I was surprised.

How do I depressurize the fuel system so I can change the fuel filter. When taking the fuel filter out, do I just pull the hose off from both ends of the fuel filter? Will lots of gas come out even after depressurizing? Also, any tips?

 

I know I've covered this before, but here goes again. To depressurize the fuel system, I prefer to pull the fuel pump relay and try to start the vehicle. That should relieve any residual fuel pressure from the feed line. You can then remove the cap from the fuel pressure test port and verify that the pressure is gone by using a screwdriver to open the shrader valve on the test port. If you have a fuel pressure tester, most have a drain line that can be used to bleed off pressure in the lines as well.

When you do get a line off of the fuel filter, fuel will spill out. You have the potential to have as much fuel come out of the line/filter as there is fuel contained in the lines and filter. Maybe a pint or two.

 

Kyle I really appreciate you help. I am sorry, its been a while since I have worked on my vehicle so I am lost on where the fuel pump relay is and where the fuel pressure test port is and where the shrader valve is.

 

Fuel pump relay can be found by removing the top to the underhood fuse box and locating the appropriate relay on the schematic on the underside of the top.

The fuel pressure test port is in the larger fuel line directly behind the throttle body. It'll have a cap on it a bit bigger than a tire valve stem with the same type of valve, a shrader valve.
