Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Help on parts list for fuel pressure gauge

[tmckenzie]

Got the mechanical fuel pressure gauge in this week. Planning on hooking it up this weekend through one of the unused bolts on top of the fuel filter canister. Want to be able to get all parts needed so that I can proceed on with getting it hooked up this weekend. Want to run diesel in cab. Thanks for the help.

Aight decided Im gonna use braided stainless line- just gonna see if I can find somewhere to make one up for me. Do I need a needle vavle and if so why?

I used a needle valve to control the gauge needle from fluttering. Another advantage of a needle valve is that you can quickly turn off the flow if necessary.

I would buy the Banjo bolt from Genos and take your Fuel pressure right at the inj pump. I think that this is the best place because it warns you when the pressure is low at the inj pump... . cloged filter, weak lift pump. MY $. 02

I bought my complete mechanical guage setup from Rod at www.wildcatdiesel.com

SS braided line & fittings.

My needle valve came from Graingers.
