Need A Way To Check Fuel Pressure, But You've Got No Pressure Tap?

It's a matter of finding the right parts. {click on images for larger view}



The valve is from the fuel rail on an '88 Ford Ranger (2.9L V6). Part CM-3461,E0AY-9H321-A.
The tap is a 1/16" NPT. The wood is a piece of scrap oak.



Drill and tap the oak board to accept the plug of choice. Install the plug and clamp in a vise
to prevent movement while working. The rest is obvious enough...tap, install, and
use a standard fuel pressure test gauge.
