The FI power goes directly from the battery to the relay under the back 
seat.  It does not go through the fuse box.  The fuel pump relay does, 
however, get its power from one of the fuses.

This is a good caution, but you don't have to remove anything, just 
disconnect them at the SUPPLY end.

I agree.
