F150 Fuel Filter Change?

Anyone know how to change the fuel filter on my 06 Yamaha F150 TXR

Looks simple enough, but if it simply unscrews, it is on very tight and I don?t want to break it at the bracket where it mounts. Also there is a wire going into the bowl from the bottom. No idea what it?s for. Doesn't seem to detach. Must just twist up as the bowl unscrews, (if it unscrews)? Anyone done this before?

have I done it before? at least once and I stayed at a holiday inn.
yes it simply unscrews,yes its rather tight,thats why they made a special tool that catches in the notches at the top of the filter.
the wires coming out are for the water detect function.
simply follow the wire back and unclip it for removal.

not only do I work on this junk everyday I happen to run an 07 F150 on my 22 seapro.
