No probs
nah, just as long as the engine is off, the fuel pump will not be running.
It may help, like mentioned above to open the fuel filler neck, just to make sure.
I'd recommend gettin some to give u a hand, as once u have disconnected the pipe, some1 can then put their finger over it to reduce spillage.

Matt - u dont need to do that mate....
just jack one side of car up, undo the clips either side of filter, put new filter in, ensurin joins are tight, and drop car down.
start engine, and ensure no leaks. Dont :D
Be prepared to get petrol all over ur hands + the floor, so wear gloves.
sorted

i've read me haynes and it says i need to depressurise my fuel system by disconnecting the fuel relay in the ECU
but my ECU ain't n e thing like the one in their picture - wheres me fuel relay - i've got a 1.4 16v Sri
and can't i just unscrew the old fuel filter and stick the new one in its place without fathing about with depressurising and that?
cheers Matt
