I just purchased a Fuel pressure gauge from JEGs. Its the one made for 5 litre mustangs. It has the brass adapter for the schrader valve. My question is , I was told to remove the schrader valve and screw in the gauge directly into the fuel line. It doesnt fit ! the threads on the brass adapter are way too big. Am I supposed to screw it into the S. Valve...If I do what depresses the pin in the valve. Here is a pic. hard to see but it says "liquid filled gauge with adapter fitting" " 5.0 MUSTANG"

you are going to have to buy an adapter, i think its a 1/16 male adapter to 1/8th female, ill try to find it on summit and post it for you. with that adapter you thread it to the gauge and into the rail.


edit: found it, this is most likely what you need

pin can be removed like a valve stem on a car, but you probably need an adapter
