[DML] Re: removing fuel system pressure

["Dave Swingle" <swingle_dmc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Leave the engine off for several hours/overnight.
or
Crack loose the large fuel distributor bolt on the line from from the 
filter wrapped in a shop rag. 

The inertia switch trick will kill the car, and the pressure will drop 
to the injector-open pressure and stay there for a couple of hours 
anyway.
