Default replacing injectors and MAF-----Anything to be careful of?

I assume this is an easy job. Just thought I would check before I brake something.

Default I managed to blow the ECU fuse while replacing the MAF but I was doing some

"research" at the same time. For you just unplug and replace. It's never a bad idea to disconnect the battery whenever you are working on a car. Remember your radio code.

Default Easy job, releasing the injectors from the intake manifold can be difficult.

1. Release the fuel pressure by slowly undoing the supply line to the fuel rail. Use rag to catch spilled gasoline.
2. Remove return line at fitting.
3. Remove black cover over fuel rail.
4a. Remove vacuum/boost line to fuel press regulator.
4b. Remove any crud lying around injectors, don't want it to fall into the intake manifold.
5. Remove fuel rail complete with injectors, I used a pry bar, a block of wood and a light hand to gently pry up on the fuel rail.
6. Take fuel rail back to bench and remove clips holding injectors in.
7. Careful, there is about 100 ml of gasoline in the fuel rail.

I should have added to remove the bolts holding the fuel rail down.
