Fuel pressure Gauge question.

DrHolliday · June 1st, 2007, 07:35 PM

I bought an Auto-Meter sport Comp electronic fuel pressure gauge.

Does anyone know if the sending unit they send with their kit will thread into the the fuel rail if I remove the schrader valve, or do I need to get an adapter?

most likely yes you will need an adapter for that, the shcrader is a 1/16NPT and most gauge senders are 1/8npt. NOS sells an adaptor for that but is a little fragile i had one on my F150 and it snapped off at the rail (that sucks balls) however NX and some other people make a fuel rail block kit for nitrous fuel supple and gauges and what ever else you need for a fuel source and i believe its 1/8npt i think they are around 50 bucks

Thanks for the input guys. So I need to get a 1/16 NPT to what ever my sending unit is.

This might be noobish of me, but I can't for the life of me figure out what NPT meant
