[vernon summers]

Hello all,

Does anyone remember the part # for the fitting to attach a electric autometer fuel pressure sender to a syty fuel rail. I remember that autometer and Nos both make one but cant find the part #'s


Thank you

I think it is better to mount the sender away from the fuel rail.
Sinceit is fragile already addingthe extra weight to it could cause more undue stress.

I think it is goodrich who made the Stainless Steel braided line with the correct fittings on both ends.
I have a brand new one right here I am not using.
$45 inc shipping.

It is a little under 3 ft so you can mount the sender on the firewall.
Or I saw Tyler had his run in a "U" shape and mounted it somewhere around the ABS/cruise control unit area.

Should answer most questions and explain some alternatives

And if you'd like to keep the engine bay clean, here is an alternative.
It costs more, but less clutter around the engine.

Rick,

I see U put the sender in front of the Fuel Filter. These are Saginaw fittings. How did U tie into these special fittings ? Or did U replace the fuel line w AN braided line all the way to the fuel rail ?

Quick tip from the UBB:

Whipple Industries sells a "fuel pressure test fitting" (there is no part
number) which will allow you to install your aftermarket fuel pressure sender
under the truck. The fitting (3/8 Saginaw male-3/8 Saginaw female) installs
between the hardline and the fuel hose. Simple and stealthy. No ugly sender
in the engine bay, no attachments to your test port and no chance of a
cracked fuel rail. To order, contact Dennis @ Whipple Industries,
559.442.1261. Cost is $15. See pics at:

Much thanks to Dean Higson (Ty2194) for his valuable input.

You can get a 1/8" NPT to -4AN fitting for <$4 here:

You can get pre-assembled -4AN hoses for <$12 here:

The schrader valve is -4AN, so that's all you need to connect it up.
