Inline Fuel Pressure Gauge Install....Cheap! Options

[Jason74914]

So, I've been tracking down some fuel delivery issues and got tired of hooking and unhooking the fuel pressure meter. I found a great, and inexpensive solution that works great that I thought I'd share.

I installed an inline fuel pressure gauge from JEGS. It is small, 1.5" face, and they come in any color and range that you can imagine. Liquid filled for vibration. Only $20. I chose black face with range of 0-60 psi. Link below.

JEGS did not have a fitting that would fit the 7mm fuel line (I actually use 3/8 or 7.9mm FI line just fine.) So, sourced one from Summit Racing with 5/16 nipples...which is 7.9mm.
$6. Link below.

I installed new high pressure line from front injector rail to cold start valve, and put the inline gauge in-between, closer to the fuel rail. See pic.
It works great! I can now easily monitor the fuel pressure from the engine bay, at any time. Makes troubleshooting fuel delivery issues easier....now on to the other problems.
