Also, the manual mentions the "proper procedure for removing the fuel
lines". If anyone knows these "Proper procedures" please let me know

Thanks

The essence of "the proper procedure" is to handle the stored fuel pressure
in the lines - about 40 psi for multiport injection. It isn't a big deal
unless it takes you by surprise.

The classic way of doing that is to disconnect the fuel pump and try to
start the engine - it will sputter when the pent up fuel is injected then
just crank. As long as there is enough ventilation you can do it my way -
wrap a rag around the connection when you loosen it, then take the gas
soaked rag outside and dump a glass of water on it. The amount of
pressurized gasoline will be a couple of spoonfulls.
