fuel pressure guage
I got a fuel pressure guage the kind that screws into your fuel log. My question can I just take out the plug bolt or will a bunch of gas come out? Also when I screw in the guage do I use teflon tape or anything?
Thanks just want to be sure I can just unscrew the bolt and screw in the guage. Thanks

Re: fuel pressure guage
Unscrew plug and install. Small amt. of gas will run out (whats in line above plug. Use no tape as a piece might get under float needle. Gauge has tapered threads and seals it's self.

Re: fuel pressure guage
Its an NPT thread, using any kind of sealer will damage the threads and accually cause it to leak.
