Relieving fuel pressure?

Is there an easier way to do it rather than yanking the fuel pump connector near the rear speaker? I really don't want to pull up the carpet. Where is the fuel pump fuse located?

Thanks,
Michael

Under the hood... pull the EGI fuse where the main fuses are.

Start car, wait for stall. Try to start it 2 or so times after that.

IIRC, the EGI fuse will also cut spark/not let the injectors fire. I find it easier to just disconnect the harness under the dash, but I can locate it without even looking, couldn't tell you what it looks like for the life of me however.

there is a relay under the driver side dashbord connected to the sterring column, disconnect that if u want to disable the fuel ( I think its the easiest spot)

Nevermind, managed to lift the carpet enough to yank the fuel pump connector. Thanks though!
