Get ready to catch fuel!

	The system is under pressure.  There is no easy way to relieve that
pressure, and you'll have a spray when you crack the line. I just did it
on my 16v.  Take your time!  You'll lose about half a cup of gas, but it
will come out quickly.  Use eye protection.  Once this is done, then it
is an easy replacement.  Make sure you use a backup wrench too.

Hope it helps,
Lloyd
