You mean like this? Remove them from the engine as one unit including the clamps and stands. You will have to remove the air intake horn to do it. Then take a bunch of pictures of them on your work bench so you know how to put them back together correctly. Take some more pictures at various stages of takeing them apart. The plastic lined clamps are supposed to be exactly where they are. Some of the clamps look alike but they are not. Then I used some paint remover I bought at a hardware store. Don't forget to remove the paint from the clamps and the nuts that fasten the lines to the delivery valves and injectors. Then polished them up. When I had them put back together I cleaned up the insides with lots of brake cleaner and air. Believe it or not, it will start up without bleeding the lines. It takes a few crank it for a while and let the starter cool cycles. Then one or two will start. It will rock and roll a little bit before they all kick in.

Disassemble then use lacquer thinner soaked rags on them.

Do the same methods also work on the valve covers?
