I gotta install my turbo in this friday so any help is greatly appreciated! Also where can you buy the "engine slinger" that the fsm calls for? And last one how about the oil pan seal cutter? Haha I feel like a newb, any imput is appreciated!
The crazy computer you can get for probably $5,000 and it does a lot more than release the fuel pressure. You can also start the car and pull the fuel pump fuse. The car will die. Crank it a couple more times. Also remove the gas cap to remove pressure in the tank. This will zero out the pressure in the rail but there will still be some fuel in it that will leak out if you disconnect a line. Engine slinger...is that a support stand or a cherry picker? Try Pep Boys or Harbor Freight. The oil pan seal cutter you don't really need, just be real careful to not scratch the oil pan or the block when you break the seal.
