Fuel Filter Replace

Today I changed the oil, filter, air filter, and glow plugs. I have the fuel filter to do next and I was in need of any info that may be of benefit.
The repair manual is very helpful. I was looking for new tires today and the salesperson asked about alignment specs and low and behold there they were. Good book!
Cheers,
WM

Ok lets see...
1) disconnect line from tank at filter (pinch or plug)
2) disconnect line to engine at filter (drain excess)
3) remove filter
4) replace filter
5) reconnect line from engine to new filter
6) unpinch/unplug line from tank
7) pump/bleed and attach to new filter
8) something is not gelling??
9) fuel spilling everywhere...panic ensues. (followed by profantity)
