Take off the gas cap.. Take out the fuse for the fuel pump. Turn the car over a few times. That should release any pressure in the fuel system.

^ Actually:

Open Hood
Remove fuse box cover
Start Car
Pull fuel pump relay
Let car die

Then open the gas cap and push the little flapper in.

Thats the best way to do it.
