What tips can you provide for replacing a fuel filter?

This can be dangerous. I would recommend taking it to someone who knows what they're doing. You could burn up your car if you are not careful. If you have to ask, you probably shouldnt do it.

The exact location and removal/replacement of the fuel filter will vary by vehicle; however, here are two universal safety precautions: 1)First thing, remove the fuel pump fuse and start your vehicle. Let it run until it dies, to reduce fuel in the filter and lines. 2)then, disconnect your battery!

Just make sure to release the pressure first if it's fuel injected. Then remove the fuel lines and unbolt the filter assembly. Then just install the new one.
