Forgive my memory, but do I need to depressurize my fuel system to replace the ring/disc/spring in the SFMU? I want to say I can just pop the top and do whatever... but I'm trying to avoid a big mess of flamable liquid as well.
1.) No need, open away! 2.) Just pop the gas tank cap! 3.) Unplug fuel pump under rear seat and start car!

While I agree that it's best practice, I just bought a new hardware support kit from Vortech (essentially new discs/rings/spring) and wanted to start tinkering again... preferrably each morning try a new combo on the way to work, and was trying/hoping to minimize the effort involved each morning.
Anyone know if either option 1 or 2 would be alright? - J

HMmmmm, didn't think about that... I don't have to be at work till 10a, but I don't get off till after 6p (so it'll be too dark to mess around). This will make my life easier, thanks!
As an afterthought (if my tinkering persists), I may just wire a kill switch in the center console
