5805, Fuel pressure gauge? - need help
Posted by DarkOne, Jun-02-01 11:05 AM
I bought an autometer electric fuel pressure gauge from shaun frank @ NER, and i need to know the thread size of the fuel rail's service port. Does anyone know it? The gauge's sending until is threaded for 1/8th and comes with a fitting to up it to 1/4th .. Anyone know what size that service port is and where i can get a fitting for it??

You need to remove the shrauder valve...unless you can find a shrauder valve fitting..

Now this is a guess and take this with a grain of salt, but since it is a schrader valve that looks pretty similar to the kind on your tire (valve stem) why not take a valve stem cap and see if it screws to the service port... if it works than find a spare valve stem (they are laying around at any tire shop like Discount) and take it into a Autozone or NAPA where they can size it for you...

Maybe this can help, or maybe it won't, but atleast I gave you a reason to stop talking to yourself... j/k

HA! Thanx Don...

But no. I tried that, too. the schrader valve in the service port is not quite the same as a tire valve.. It is bigger, in fact.

Someone has to know this. I know some of the NOS guys have things tied into that service port.. do any of them know what size it is??
