Fuel filter change
#1
Hello guys.
I am brand new to forum today so sorry if making mistakes.

I have vauxhall astra gtc and want to change the filter buy worry about a few things.

PROCESS:
1) Undo the bleed screw and drain out fuel
2) Remove filter cap using 36mm socket
3) Change filter and seal
4) Screw all back together.

Where I need help is:

1) Are you meant to have minimal diesel in your tank when doing this? Does the drain screw drain out the whole tank or just what's in the filter?

2) Starting the car - do you simple start the car or do you need to prime it first / fill up the tank with fresh fuel. As I worry about it not starting.

Thanks any help would be great.
