Fuel rail connect

[danostuff67]

Is this too many adapters on the fuel rail? Running a cabin fuel pressure gauge, but would like to keep the under hood gauge also.

I wouldn't much like to have that heavy liquid filled gauge hanging 3 inches from the rail vibrating on all those aluminum fittings. Besides, if looks matter (sometimes they don't) it looks a little junky to have all that tacky blue and red stuff taking up all that space.

A brass or steel one piece fitting would work more elegantly. I know they are available from some of our vendors. Check around.

I would like to find the 180 degree fitting and I would lose the fuel gauge under the hood. Like how clean that looks, but haven’t been able to find one.

Easy to get wrapped up in the adapter game
I did mine with minimal fittings

tell me you have an isolator under the hood to that incabin fuel gauge ...

also ditch the underhood gauge ..two gauges is redundant and the under hood is seldom accurate due to temp unless you vent the plug every time before you read it

I think I am going to go straight from the fuel rail to the sender & loose the under hood gauge. Then just run the wires into the cabin to the gauge. Think it would be cleaner and less of a fire hazard.
