I'm doing a fuel pressure regulator and fuel filter job on my '92 f150.
--4.9L

**New engine, etc. for me, and i've got the regulator ready to go, **Can't get the filter off the gas line.
I've got the clips off...just wanted to check before i go gorrilla grip on it and try to pop it off.

--I don't have a separator or anything so I was looking to hear if anybody's got an easy way to pop the filter off the fuel line.

 

You have to use fuel line removal tools.
I will not pop off without them.
If you force it you will just bend the keeper and you will have to replace it.
