Not sure on your model year but a lot of the Fords require the use of a simple tool to unlock the filter connection. Thye are fairly cheap Less than $10 and usuall come as a set. They look like big plastic poker chips with various sized collars on them that fit around the fitting and depress the locking collar of the filter.

Usually pretty easy to use. My biggest pforblem on my 94 F250 is that there is not much room for my hands. And, getting enough pressure to push the fuel line onto the new filter can be a problem too because of lack of space and that some filters have thin metal cans that can deform a bit if pushed too hard.

Good Luck,
