Fuel Filter question

[CaptainSlow]

Hi just changing a fuel filter for the first time. Is there anything special I need to be aware of or is it just take off old put in new?

Depends on the system. If it is EFI then the fuel line will be under pressure and will soak you when you undo things.
You should remove the fuse for the fuel pump and run the engine which will release the pressure.

or just plan for the release of fuel by wrapping things in rag before you undo a joint but this is of course dangerous and I didn't recommend it.
