fuel line bleeding ?

I know when you put new fuel injectors in your supposed to bleed your fuel line now if I ordered a ottp stage kit and they already flashed my computer is it ok to plug the pcm back in to start it up just to bleed the fuel line pressure down?

how important is it to bleeding the line to put new injectors in?

just get a rag and a flathead. remove the fuel rail cover. remove black cap on the schrader valve. layer the rag over that valve and press down with the flathead. keep doing that until all the pressure is out of the rail
