Question What's the best way to disable the fuel pump?

I need to disable the fuel pump to pressure clean the injectors.
I look for the fuse on the glove compartment but could not find it, I have not check on the rear fuse box, but I was wondering if its better to lift the back seat and just disconnect the pump?

You could do that or pull the relay, it's in the glove compartment too IIRC

Don't know what year yours is, but pulling the fuse under the glove box worked great for me.

Same here. Fuse or relay has always worked for me. Just have some towels ready as there's always gonna be residual fuel in the lines.
