Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Mechanical fuel pressure gauge suggestions needed

[Texas Diesel]

Any suggestions?

I have an Isspro EV series with braided line into the cab. I have a T-valve shut off comming off the bottom of the fuel filter to shut of the pressure if it should ever develope a leak. It's never leaked in 2 yrs.

I have the same setup as GFrance. Do not use teflon tape to seal the threads. The diesel may break it down and you may have seeping at the guage. I did and replaced it with a paste called gasolia thats recommended for fuels.

Thanks for the suggestion, one has been ordered

Black #2 Permatex also works well for sealing the connections. I use it on my connections into my sender and haven't had any trouble with leaks.

Thanks all!



Isspro installed, braided steel line looks nice, permatex on the threads, life is good, fuel pressure is not so good :-laf
