how do you change fuel filter in 92 astro awd?

Do I actually have to mess with the releasing the pressure in the fuel lines and if so how do you repressurize the system?

It's been years since I changed one, but I recall you just need a couple of wrenches to change, correct? I just cracked one of the connections and then held a rag over it to soak up the fuel. (I think it is my Super Duty that requires special release tools to swap the filter and I seem to recall making a bigger mess removing it without relieving pressure first!) :muhaha:
