    Re: fuel pressure sending unit

    You will need a adapter that goes onto the fuel rail and then the sending unit screws into the adapter. I'll see if I can get a pic. Search the nitrous section for the part# for the adapter. You'll need a tire removal tool to unsrew the pin inside the port so fuel will come out once you get all the parts to hook up the fuel pressure gauge. My Autometer Fuel gauge has been great going on 7 years with no problems,knock on wood.

        that will work if you want to splice your fuel line. Let me warn you that clamping the stock lines is a pain in the butt to get to seal.

        A better route would be to get the brass fittings that fit the schrader valve on the fuel rail

            you will have to cut and splice it into the line off your fuel rail. There is no screws for this. it is a nylon hose.

              Its better to go off the fuel rail as stated.
