Not to hijack, but which line do you put the fuel pressure gauge in? The return or supply? also, which one is which? 85 gsl-se.

thanks in advance.

hmmm I would say the FEED line since the return is after the FPR
I'm not sure B/c I have an aftermarker fpr/and gauge and i got rid of the stock regulator.........and the feed line is the one closer to the engine(the inside one)

if you need a good fuel pressure gauge,

either buy the one from Yaw... (it costs just as much if you buy it from an industrial parts supplier....)

OR

Inglese has a real nice 0-10PSI glycerin filled gauge for around $20.
If you call, Ask for Dan.
