replacing 92 GXE injectors - a few questions

Bob over at A1 injectors convinced me to replace a couple bad injectors in my 92 GXE myself, suggesting that the process is much easier than it looks on paper. Not having done anything like this before I have a few questions:

Do I really need a torque wrench for this? Bob is of the opinion that it isn't necessary, just tighten without stripping.

What's the easiest way to revlieve the fuel pressure? One process is letting the car run with the fuse removed from the fuel pump. This seems pretty clear cut but again, I'm new at this.

Anything else to watch out for in particular?

Thanks in advance,

John

To relive fuel pressure look for a schrader valve on the fuel line. then depress the valve to release the pressure. I wouldn't bother with a torque wrench unless you plan on doing serious racing with the car
