A fuel filter assembly having a main body defining a cylindrical cavity that can receive a cylindrical fuel filter element. One end of the main body has a nipple that is adapted to be attached to a fuel line. The other end of the main body has an opening that is sized so as to permit the fuel filter element to be positioned within the cylindrical cavity. A compression member is also adapted to be positioned within the opening so as to seal the opening when the fuel filter element is positioned within the cavity of the main body. The compression member includes a second nipple adapted to attach to a fuel line so as to allow fuel to flow through the central cavity. A threaded collar engages with the main body so as to retain the compression member in the opening of the main body. The fuel filter element can therefore be replaced by simply unthreading the collar and removing the compression member and extracting the existing fuel filter.
