drain the coolant from the bottom of the rad (the screw thingy)
buy new o rings for the injectors, use vaseline and they will slide right on to the injectors with the supplied piece
Disconnect the fuel pump relay from the trunk and crank the engine over for 20 seconds, this will get all the fuel pressure out, you dont have to dick around trying to disconnect the line - shrader valve
There are so many posts on the net with step by step - i used instructions to do a 96 crown vic - was pretty much the same.
if you do any mods and have a torque wrench you can do the full swap easily in 1 days
Take the time to clean up the mating surcface for the new intake gaskets - i used a razor blade and a vaccuum so no crap would fall in the ports.
Always good to have a mechanic buddy on stand by and take your time, be methodical
