Schraeder valve, fuel filter...

can somebody PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take a picture of this stupid Schraeder valve. I've been looking for about 15 minutes following the dumb fuel line but couldn't find it. Is my ice box covering it or something?

Just let the truck sit for a while to allow some of the pressure to bleed off.

Pull the fuse in box on fenderwell, run motor, it will die, change filter!
If I remember it is a 20 amp fuse.
Have a nice day!
