do you have a stand alone ecu? if not you will nedd some resisitors also. there are 3 10 mm bolts holding it in. get youself a 1/4 drive with a 10mm wobble socket. a wobble socket will work better than a universal joilt

The vacuum lines get removed. You can either plug them on the solenoid or remove the solenoid completely. To remove the solenoid completely, if you aren't running an aftermarket ECU, you'll need to use resistors in the connection on the wiring harness.

As for the hard line, it just comes off.
