I'll be cleaning my LIM and UIM next week but I need to know how to disconet the fuel rail. I checked the Ford cd and it calls for a special disconet tool. First Do they sale this tools to the public if not is there some other way around this? Ihave to replace the O rings on th eincjector since I notice a small fuel leak on one of them.
any advice will be apraciated

they should sell it at your local autommotive store. ask the workers for a fuel line separator tool.

Is your fuel system returnless? If so you could just un-bolt the Fuel Pressure Sensor(it's not really a regulator) from the rail and slide it out. If it is the return style, you then have two of these lines coming off the rail and would then require a special disconnect tool(the second line has no bolts). They are very inexpensive, a cheap one is made by Lisle Corp. and sells for under $15. It is probably available from any quality auto parts store.
