The thread you direct to says nothing other than to be careful of the plastic and use a new o-ring, unless I've gone blind as well as grumpy!

Is there a pressure relief valve to release before opening the housing, does the fuel pump need to be deactivated beforehand by fuse removal, is there a fuel supply shut off valve before opening the housing to prevent excessive fuel loss, is there a bleed valve to prime the system before starting etc etc. :
It's very simple ,
put a tray under the filter to catch the small amount which spills out , it will not flow out .. ...If you do not have the correct tool Use a big pair of grips gently to unscrew the outer housing . pull out the filter , push in a new one , change the blue seal and re fit housing , do not over tighten , just tighten enough for the housing to go solid . turn the ignition on for one minute , turn off ... do this 3 times and drive away ...
