Then you have nothing to worry about then. Where is your filter located?

Just a note if people want to do it on an efi car, if it has a fuel pump relay, then take it out and run the car till it stalls. Gets rid of the pressure in the lines so you don't get a spray of fuel when you take a hose off.
