I assume the haynes procedure writes exhaustivly about depressurizing the fuel system because most people worry about spilling a little gasoline on their car. I don't know if it is damaging to the fuel pump (though I highly doubt that!) but in the past I've simply unbolted the supplu lines running to and from the fuel filter and swapped it out the easy way. On my '87 the filter is attached by a clamp to the battery tray. The only trick I've found useful is to disconnect and remove the battery first, have a couple of rags around to catch spilled fuel, and to replace the in/out connections one and a time so all the fule doesn't pour out of the filter.
I havn't done the radiator flush yet. Check Quasi's site.
