Did mine in about 10 minutes, lost maybe a cup or so of fuel tops..
Jack the pass side up only (plese use stands), remove gas cap and goto town. Fuel should pool up on the DS of the tank so it doesnt siphon down to you. Having less than a half tank helps.
Make sure and get a wrench on the filter ends when loosening/tightening your lines so you dont twist/kink them or youll be hating life.

Wow, guess I just got lucky doing mine. Threw it on the lift in the shop January '06, had the thing done it ten minutes without a problem or any real gas loss. Its been awhile, but dont really remember any complications with it. Its been about 7k miles since then, I'll probably put a new one on this winter(yes, Im that guy), not looking forward to it now after reading these war stories...
