Relieving fuel pressure before removing intake? Is there a way to bleed the fuel rails before disconnecting the fuel lines? Or is there something else to be done before removing the intake manifold?

You can also start it up and pull the fuel relay while it is running. It will run out of fuel and die, leaving no pressure in the lines and less mess at the schrader valve.

shouldnt have any problem... your hardly using any fuel at idle... nor is there enough revolutions to cause any heat to detonate. plus timing is non existent at idle.
