Chris,

 

Be sure to do it outdoors and have a fire extinguisher handy.  The EFI can dump a load of fuel out the exhaust before you realize it (Right, ED?).  You can't be too careful.  Good luck.

One of my ‘good practice’ recommendations:

The last thing you do before hitting the “Start” button is turn on the EFI fuel pump.

The first thing you do when shutting down is turn off the fuel pump.
