Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Air Dog & fuel pressure gauge...

[srenfro]

Where do I connect my fuel pressure gauge once I plumb in my fuel line for my air dog. I know the Air Dog comes with an idiot light but I want my gauge plumbed in.

Call up Larry at Fuel Preporator and order the fitting that screws into the VP44 first then you hook your fuel line into it. It has a port for fuel gauge sending units. It's pretty cheap.

Thank you sir.

I just installed an AirDog in my '99 a couple weeks ago. I just cut the supplied rubber hose about a foot behind the ip and put in a tee with the correct nipples; clamped the hoses on and screwed on the existing pressure sender-no changing the wires and cheap. . I was very impressed with the quality of the kit-what's your opinion? Toughest part of installation was getting the return line off the tank. . Getting 2 hands, flashlight just right, mirror, m' head,(all the while getting stuck in the back with the sharp dually attaching bolts stickin' my back) all in there at the same time was tough. . Tried all sorts of tricks, then came up with the instant fix. . I got in there with a heavy duty scissors and it squeezed them little clips so I could pull off the hose-'bout 10 seconds worth...



14 PSI idle, 13 @ WOT-with 300HP injectors and Edge Comp on 5. . I put all this on at the same time(whilst I awaited the new VP44 to arrive). . I had taken truck out for a test drive after putting on Comp (still all stock)-4 smiles, 3 WWOOOWWSS!!! , 2 shifts, and 1 fried VP44 later and my 10 second buzz was over as I waited for somebody to come along to rescue me-what a time to leave the phone behind... Budweiser fueled Ferd driver to the rescue-what a tow!!!

I ordered the fitting Tuesday and I was told it would be around 3 business days. To my surprise it was delivered the next day. Now that is good service.

Could you give me the number to order one of those fittings as well? I'll be doing my AirDog install in a few weeks and was wondering about this same issue. Thanks!

Is this fitting the same or different from the one to be able to use your stock filter/heater? Anyone have PN's for these?
