Hi,
the filter has nothing in it that could click. The fuel pump is another story. It is in the fuel tank. Start by checking fuel pump pressure.
Here is a how to video:

If you don't have a gauge, many parts stores will rent them or you can purchase one at the test equipment store site on this page.
Let me know what you find.

How do you check the fuel pressure

With a fuel pressure gauge.
You sure didn't provide many details to work with. You didn't even bother to list the engine size so I don't know if your engine has a fuel pressure test port. If it doesn't, you have to insert a "tee" fitting in the rubber fuel hose.
Many auto parts stores rent or borrow tools. Those that do will have the pressure gauge.
If it has a port it will be on the fuel rail
See diagram below
