[DML] Re: removing fuel system pressure

["bitsyncmater" <david.mckeen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If leave it overnight you won't have any pressure the next day.  If 
you can not wait for the pressure to drop...I just back off the nut 
on the Primary pressure regulator slowly.  This lets all the pressure 
and fuel go back to the tank via the return line.
