I guess you could just tap it in to your Schrader valve. Youll have to pull the pin out first. Either that or you have to find a way to do it at the feed line. I dunno what else to tell you. I hooked mine up after I ran a return line.

not to be super super picky...but i dont want someone to read this and get the wrong info. the place that youd tap into would be your TEST PORT. the "schrader valve" is the little peice inside it....like the one in your tires valve stems. those are the actual schrader valves, not the port. but yes, you would need to remove the valve with a special tool (called a schrader valve puller/remover) and then fit your lines for your FPG.

Well... if you're going to be picky... then I'm going to be super-duper picky.
The whole valve is a Schrader Valve.

the piece that you remove is the Valve Core.

The tool used is a Schrader Valve core remover/ tool.

I would imagine that you could use a "core tool" from a tire shop/etc aswell. Those are the exact same cores that are found in valve stems (go figure). Anyways, it is basically a metal rod with a slit in the middle to fit around both sides of the core.
