I just changed the fuel filter on my 91 505 with ZDJL and didn't bothger
clamping off hoses or draining the tank - it had about 4 gallons in it. thje
only fuel that came out was that in the filter, plus a little residual
pressure. It did however, take lots of WD40 and some carefully applied
toqrque to loosen the banjo bolts on the filter. took about 1hr.
