If you're worried about fuel when cranking it over, just unclip the electrical connectors on the fuel injectors, or (possibly easier) pull a fuse or relay or whatever for the fuel pump.

I think sparkplugs should be to about 20 ft/lbs (maybe a little lower)

the fuel filter isn't that bad, as long if you're careful with the "quick-connect" fitting when taking the old one out
It's located by the rear-passenger wheel, just behind the fuel tank. One side of the filter is screwed/bolted on, the other has a fitting that you should be able to figure out if you look at it for a second.
