Jack up the left rear of the car and put it on a jack stand. Remove the rear tire. On the lower left corner of the firewall (you will have to reach above the plastic underbody shield) there are 2 quick disconnects. Remove the one with a rubber hose, ignore the one with thinner plastic hose. If you get squirted with gas when removing this fuel QD, you have fuel pressure. If you want to run gas through the system, attach a 1/4 inch rubber hose to the tube stub you took the fuel QD off from. Put the rubber hose into a container safe for gasoline. Turn on the key - gas should flow like a bugger out the rubber hose. If it doesn't, you have a problem upstream from there.
