Turn key off to stop fuel pump. Loosen all the fuel lines, slowly as to not spray gas on yourself. Then unbolt and reverse. Should only take you about 15 minutes max! Good luck buddy.

Thanks for the help! I have another dumb question, though. I'm having trouble locating the fuel pressure regulator. Where under the hood is it? Thanks again!

He said it was leaking internally and the car was failing emmissions due to this. I guess it was leaking out the vacuum line on the end!

yeah, it was leaking due to the diaphram being shot. it was also not regulating the fuel pressure, so i was burning rich (or running rich, I'm not up on the lingo...)
