My phone has not rang all day. I was at the track all after noon.

I think Rodger hit upon what I was looking for but I found this which pretty much explains it.

Basically, I want to pull a schraeder valve from a fuel rail and run a Fuel Pressure gauge on the rail. The schraeder valve is 1/16" male NPT and the Fuel Pressure Gauge runs a 1/8" female NPT. I was trying to locate a 45* aluminum adapter rather than a straight brass one.

Rodger,
I rang the wrong phone.


John,
Good luck trying to find it in a 45. Either Godman high performance or Pure choice motorsports I think has that adapter in a strait. Or you can go to a local auto parts store with an Edelman brass air hose fitting selection. Take a fitting that has a 1/8" compression hose to 1/8 pipe female adpter like in your autometer oil pressure kits. Unscrew the hose side and if I remeber correctly that thread will screw into the shraider hole. From there you can put a 45 on it but it might start to look ugly being that long. Hope this helps.

Thanks but, yeah, just too many adapters on top of adapters. I wanted to find a tee that had a 1/16" male NPT-1/16" female npt-1/8" female NPT. This way I could use the 1/16" Male NPT where the schraeder valve was and move the scrhaeder to the 1/16" female NPT and put the fuel pressure gauge on the 1/8" NPT.

I do it on a regular base. Try making your own fitting. Find the proper fittings that your going to use cut them apart and silver soder them together. This way you can make your tee that you want
