Bentley has >a technique for depressurizing. Good point. Bear in mind, though the difference btw ambient and 40 psig in that system is about half a teaspoonful/3 cc. BTW, don't forget to inspect the injector rails (plastic bottles with nipples down the side). The end is sealed with a plug cap having an o-ring, and then a metal ring is crimped over it. If the ring rusts out the plug will come shooting out of there. Happened to me. The good, or anyway less bad part is that the fuel now runs in a stream on the ground, it doesn't spurt. david David Beierl - dbeierl@ibm.net
