How hard is it to change a fuel filter on a '92 GrandAm?

I'm pretty handy, should I try it?How hard is it to change a fuel filter on a '92 GrandAm?
It can be a little tricky if you're not familiar with how to dis-connect the Quick-Connect fittings;

Other than that, you'll need some ramps to drive the rear end up on. And it's a lot less messy if you relieve the fuel system pressure. Click the link on that same page for the type of fuel system you have (probably Multi-Port, unless you have the ';Iron Duke'; 2.5L), then ';Relieving Fuel System Pressure';. Even then, some safety goggles aren't a bad idea. Gasoline in the eyes stings pretty good. LOLHow hard is it to change a fuel filter on a '92 GrandAm?
on a scale from 1 - 10 i give that one a 2, but i do them every day. as long as it is a threaded line on both sides you should have no problem but if it is a quick release type (which i do not think that it should be) that can get tricky.
if your pretty handy go for it.just make sure you use the correct size wrenches.spray lines with WD40 or some type of penetrating spray

first.also inspect the line oring for damage
A little less hard than on a 95 Le Sabre
