Not to be snarky, but I already have both the Bentley and the Haynes repair manuals. They both simply say to disconect the fuel ine, but neither one describes the method for doing so, hence my posting to this "Forum." I figured out on my own how to do it. The black plastic "sleeve" over the fuel line connection at the fuel rail has to be pushed into the metal fitting on the end of the rubber fuel line hose from the tank. No special tools needed, as with so many other types of "quick disconnect" fuel ines these days. Also, on an R56 base model Mini Cooper, the fuel line does not need to be repalced when the fuel rail is changed, unlike the Min Cooper S turbo R56 cars. Hope this helps someone out, since the Pelican folks never seem to have performed this repair.
