Changing fuel filter - HELP!!!

[CLE]

Hi everyone,

I bought myself a new fuel filter and I'm having trouble depressurising the fuel system....I've removed the fuel pump fuse and starting the car but it won't stop!!! It's as if the fuel pump has a second fuse or something....

I don't want to change it and get a mouthful of petrol...

The car's been running for about 3 minutes now with the fuel pump fuse OUT....what is going wrong here???

Even if I don't depressurise it, will it be that bad? Will the petrol just keep pouring and pouring out???


Thanks!

I remove the plug that I thought went to the fuel pump but that didn't work either....I noticed that on my dash it said I had distance to empty: 0 (was about 300km before). When I plugged it back in it was ok.
