Lightbulb Fuel Rail install

First, remove the rear seat. There are two clips just under the front of the seat in the center of each rear sitting area. Plug the clips gently and the slide the seat up and out.
Next, take the 4 screws out of the cover that is on the driver's side on the rear seat.
Under it is the fuel pump, remove the grey plug, remember to squeeze in the clip.
Now, go try and start the car a few times. This will remove most of the fuel in the rail and injectors.
Next undo the hoses to steel pipe above the fuel rail.
Then remove the bolts taht hold the hoses on the ends of the rail. 10mm I believe.
Now remove the two bolts holding the fuel rail on. 12mm DON'T DROP THE BLACK PLASTIC SPACERS!!
Next life the small metal retainers off of the injectors. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP THEM, and remove the plugs.
GENTLY, pull the fuel rail and the injectors out of the car.
Gently wiggle the injectors to get them out of the rail. If you are a clutz, buy some o-rings before doing this job.
Now put some oil, any will do and the o-rings of the injectors and GENTLY press them back into the new fuel rail. The bottom of the injector also has an o-ring on it make sure you don't drop any of those and lube them a bit.
Reverse these steps and your done.
Also, spend the $35 bucks and get a fuel pressue gauge and spend the $145ish and get a fuel pressure regulator. They will connect to your new rail (buy the right ones for your rail) and then with the vacuum line disconnected from the FPR set the pressure at idle to 43psi. Reconnect the vacuum line (that's another install) and your done.
