Fuel Pressure Test Port
For those of you that do not have a test port (schrader valve) because of the plastic fuel rails. How are you connecting a fuel pressure gauge.
Do they make an adapter?
Thanks

couple options. You can get a gm style in-line fuel filter that has a the pressure port on it. You would have to cut the fuel line, put some nuts on it, and then flare it, to put it in there. Once there, you can just leave it.
Another option would be to pick up the right parts to make yourself an adapter that goes between the fuel line, and the fuel rail, that has the test port in it.

I picked up the metal fuel rail at the locale pick and pull for $4 and put it in place. cleaned the injectors and replaced the o-rings while I was at it. now I have the port on the fuel rail for testing. I think it was a good mod, two concerns...you must be careful threading on to it, the threads don't seem very hardy and I wonder why they changed to the plastic fuel rail. did it keep the fuel cooler, was it cheaper to produce, what? any way that's what I am running, no problems yet.
