    Also, the manual mentions the "proper procedure for removing the fuel
    lines". If anyone knows these "Proper procedures" please let me know

    Thanks

  3. The essence of "the proper procedure" is to handle the stored fuel pressure
    in the lines - about 40 psi for multiport injection. It isn't a big deal
    unless it takes you by surprise.

    The classic way of doing that is to disconnect the fuel pump and try to
    start the engine - it will sputter when the pent up fuel is injected then
    just crank. As long as there is enough ventilation you can do it my way -
    wrap a rag around the connection when you loosen it, then take the gas
    soaked rag outside and dump a glass of water on it. The amount of
    pressurized gasoline will be a couple of spoonfulls.
