Thankfully my 2000 Box IP doesn't have that "big screen" option.

ok, i'll pull the fuel rails tonite (wanted to avoid it as my garage is sealed for the winter and fumes will be an issue); thanks for the tip on bending the tab up - it is one of the bottle necks.

edit to add: given my luck, i'll probably snap the tab off in the process ...

get a 1mm-2mm rubber cap/plug/stopper for the hard fuel line attached to the body & disconnect the supply line to the fuel rail. Cap the main line & drain the fuel rail into 1 litre catch can. Bend fuel rail over to opposite side of engine. It's really tight to cram that 987 airbox in place. The tabs are good steel so they bend back & forth well.
