Is there anything that I should be cautious of when replacing my fuel pressure regulator in my '98 Honda Prelude SH, or is it pretty straight forward? Should I be worried about fuel leaking everywhere in the process or anything like that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Make sure there is no pressure in the line. If there is it will spray out with force. Keep anything electrical or open flames do it in a well ventilated area. Remember it is not just the fuel that ignites but also the fumes.

First disconnect the battery, Loosen up the return line by the engine, let the pressure deop down before disconnecting the fuel line. There will be some fuel that comes out so have a catch pan handy.
