I have a 2000 F-150 with the 5.4 Triton V8. I want to change my fuel filter. I have the appropriate tools to compress the spring on the fuel line connections...but don't I have to depressurize the fuel system first? Is there a schrader valve somewhere? Or a switch I can turn that shuts off fuel...then start the motor until it runs out of gas...like you have to do with the Broncos from the early 90s? Any info. would be great.
