Step 2: Disconnect the fuel lines.
Use a fuel line wrench to loosen the fuel lines attached to the fuel filter. Be careful not to spill any fuel.
Step 3: Remove the fuel filter.
Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry the fuel filter out of its housing.
Step 4: Install the new fuel filter.
Insert the new fuel filter into the housing. Make sure that the O-rings are properly seated.
Step 5: Reconnect the fuel lines.
Use a fuel line wrench to tighten the fuel lines attached to the fuel filter.
Step 6: Start the engine and check for leaks.
Start the engine and check for any leaks. If there are any leaks, tighten the fuel lines until the leak stops.
