If it is the style conversion I have it is threaded with an o-ring. I put two bolts in the holes at each end it attaches to the supply and return lines at and use a small bar wedged between the two bolts to get leverage to unscrew the two halves. I recommend scribing a whiteness mark in order to avoid over tightening. The filter element is the supper common Ford spin on FL-1A or equivalent such as Fram PH-13 and so on. Count your blessings it is converted already, this is a $500 conversion from the usual suppliers here in the U.S.

Best of luck,
Jim
