How to disable the fuel pump???

I have a 2004 6MT Sedan, and would like to know if there's an easy way to disable the fuel pump. I want to run an injector cleaner system on the car. I presume I can unplug the pump directly, (at the gas tank), but I was hoping there was a fuse or a relay that could be pulled to make it easier. I need to just disable the fuel pump...I need the ignition to still work.

To use this OTC injector cleaning system, first I need to run the car dry of fuel to minimize the fuel that blows out when the fuel line is removed. Then, once the cleaning system is installed, the car will run off the quart of cleaner, (again with fuel pump disabled).

Since I just had all my injectors out as I swapped them to a new engine...I KNOW it's time for a cleaning. I do highly recommend this OTC kit; but you do need their adapter set as well to use it. I have used this on a few other high mileage vehicles with great success. This is a MUCH better system than the aerosol can cleaners. It is also a whole lot less expensive than the similar Snap-on system, yet much more comprehensive in terms of adapters.

There is a fuse behind the battery that will disable the fuel pump. I pulled it when I installed my fuel pressure gauge sensor. I will have to double check the exact one though, I can't remember off the top off head.
