There is no magic tool for connecting the high pressure fuel lines. All you need is a standard flare crowfoot and a standard torque wrench. That's how I did mine when I did the valley plate repair on my car last October. Piece of cake.

The SST for the fuel pressure sensor is not needed. There is no reason at all to remove the HP fuel pressure sensor, and the FSM actually does not have any procedure for doing this outside of Safety Recall ELF, and the tools used for that recall are not generally available to the public. Lexus will not sell you a pressure sensor, they will only sell the rail with the sensor already installed.

Welllll, that is what I was referring to. Sorry should have been clearer. When I pulled mine apart to do the valley plate sealant, I decided to pull the Fuel Pressure sensor for access to the plate. BEFORE reading up on the ELF recall and it's specific tools and torque angle gauge for tightening the sensor! Just wondered if anyone else has dealt with theirs? Thanks for the insight.

Direct injector replacement
So I am in the middle of the valley plate fix and I am pretty sure I broke the connector on the passenger side rear direct injector. It is very flimsy compared to all the other injectors which have almost no play in them. See the following video.

Any ideas what I need to replace other than the obvious injector? Seals as well? Any concerns or cautions before pulling that fuel rail? I have never messed with direct injection before. I will google the part number for that injector and any advice is appreciated.
