To the OP....
Open your hood. Theres a schrader valve (Bicycle valve) with a GREEN screw on plastic cap on it on the passenger rear side of the engine compartment. Unscrew that cap. And with the car OFF AND COLD depress the little nipple like you are letting air out of your tire, while covering it with a rag. It will burp a little gas out, and that's it!
OR as soon as you remove the fuell rail, the same thing will happen. Wither way works.

DO NOT DO THIS!! This is an ignorant, and dangerous idea!! Our fuel pump is acessed from inside the car. You do not want that and the fumes AND the open tank exposed while engaging your electrical system!!!! Not to mention you run the risk of damaging things. WTF are you thinking!! This is how people get killed. If you want be a dumbass and do this be my guest. But don't play with others lives because you don'tknow what the F' you are doing!!!!![](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/icon22.gif)

Haha, just making sure. I would never tell anyone to open a tank and pull the pump while its running. One way to make the schrader valve method easier to attach a fuel pressure gauge to it and allow it to vent that way. I was hoping someone was not bi-polar, haha.
