mga60t, here’s that tutorial link:
Fuel filter write up
We were discussing the different methods used by some for gaining access to the Fuel Filter last night while I was changing mine. I explained how in this nice tutorial, it states to remove the filter between the battery tray and the A/C lines.

Of course to do this you must remove the battery. As you can see, the battery tray is notched back for the necessary room.
I then tried to insert a new filter between the A/C lines and the intercooler tube and it just won’t fit, regardless of the size of hands.
I don’t know how ya’ll do it this way.
I gave up on draining the filter and inserted a funnel below to a drain pan to pour into instead.
Instead of the WIF sensor wrench, I've always just used my King size Channel-Locks without damage.
