I want to install an inline fuel pressure gauge in my 1.8L to monitor things while I diagnose some issues. Where is the proper place to do this for monitoring fuel pressure?

I cut the fuel line going to the cold start injector and put in a T with one port having FPT threads and mounted a VDO gauge right to it.
I can adjust my fuel pressure at the regulator while looking at the gauge and it also instantly solved the mystery when my low fuel light quit working and I ran out of gas.... |
