with the key on ACC and if you press the flap in on the AFM you get a hissing noise coming from the injectors/fuel rail area, just wondering if that is the sound of gas spraying into the intake? or something elce?
yah, useless question I know, but it's just bugging me.

Yep. When the AFM opens slightly, the fuel pump starts up again and fuel flows through the rails. For this to happen, it's likely that the key is in IGN and not ACC.
