I was thinking that I could take the power off the pump at the tank and turn the enging over a few times to release alittle pressure..I dont need to get all the fuel out

Yes do both. Take off the power cord on top of the fuel tank, then open the cap at the gas refueling. Then crank it a few times.

Remove the power to the pump, start your car, let it run until it dies from fuel starvation.

When I changed my fuel pump and filter, I opened the fuel cap, yanked the fuel pump relay, and then ran the car. It was never an issue of pressure, but more like a drip. Relieve the pressure from the fuel filter area 1st that way you wont have any fuel issues inside the car. Its not a hard install. When I did mine I also did the fuel pump rewire since I knew i was going to be in that area.

Thanks for all your help guys, yeah I just undid the power to the pump at the tank, then cranked it and it worked perfectly.
It sounds like a vacuum cleaner from 3 bedrooms away lol but it sounds beautifull!
Appreciate your help.
