does anyone have an answer for this?

[mustangfan1990]

I was wondering if anyone knew if they make a kit or what I would need to run a braided hose from my fuel pressure isolator to the strater valve on my fuel line. I know I would need a braided hose and fitting for the strater valve, but i dont know what size I need can anyone show me a kit or something please thanks.....

It depends upon what gauge you have, etc. For example in my case, I have a 4' braided hose that screws directly into the back of the AM gauge. I have a couple of adapters to go from the 1/16" (IIRC) Schrader valve to the braided line (4 AN IIRC). You just look at what you have and get adapters to get there.

well I have the ford racing Autometer fuel pressure gauge. I need the braided hose from the isolator to the schrader valve. I am not sure what fitting is on my schrader valve. All I know is it is the factory one....how do I find out what size I need?

You can buy the Autometer Stainless Steel braided hose for like $60. Or a local shop that makes hydraulic hose assemblies can make it for you at a cheaper price. Ordinary low pressure hydraulic hose can be used in place of the Stainless Steel braided hose, the Stainless Steel braided hose just looks nice. I got mine for $4 at a place that sells industrial and military surplus parts of all kinds. The Stainless Steel braided hose goes for about $3.60 a foot and the fittings are probably about $5-$8 each. You can make your own and save some $$$, the shops may have a setup or labor charge to fabricate the hose assembly.
