I would like to mount fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail service port.
It's bigger than any one I seen so far. Normally it is as big as valve on your tires.
Does anyone know of anything on this subject?
I'm loking for a small gauge ( 2" ) liquid filled that would screw in or via adapter to port itself.

Thanks :thup2:

I went to a local hot rod shop and they had small fuel preasure gauges and the correct adapter to the large schraeder valve thats on the fuel rail.

I wound up not doing it, but it looked simple.

Out of curiosity why do you want to do this? Is it for troubleshooting? Or do you want it permanently mounted there and if it is are you going to put it in the cab or leave it under the hood

Good question !

The reason I want to do this is because I'm anal about how much I know of what is going on under the hood at all times.
My race car has it, It just one of those things that it would help me with my routine maintance and monitoring all vital signs.
It can stay in the engine bay,I would bolt it directly to service port.
I don't feel like running the separator and addditional stuff to make it safe for the in cab mounting. :beerchug:
