Question on Intercooler Replacement

Hello. If you wanted to check your fuel pressure when the intercooler is removed, is it safe to run the engine and if so, for how long?

Thanks.

Do not run the engine with the intercooler off. Set up your tester, run the hose out of the way, then reinstall the intercooler.
