Default Cannot find fitting

I have looked everywhere and cannot find a -4AN female to 1/4" npt female adapter fitting for my fuel pressure gauge. Does anyone have a source for this piece?

I guess mine is different? In the directions, it specifially calls for this fitting. I do not see any other way to install it without this fitting either.

I talked to dynotune and they said there's an adapter in the kit and that i actually need a -4an female to 1/8" npt female. I found the fitting i needed, but now i can't find a T or 90 type fitting you speak of that would work. I would need a -4an female, a 1/8th female and a -4an male on the fitting.

Metco carries a single adapter that is a 4AN to 1/8 NPT couple, female female. Do a search for it in this section. I did mine a little differently. I bought a 1/8" NPT T-fitting, female on all ends, then a 4AN female to 1/8" NPT male adapter. On one end of the T-fitting I put the fuel pressure sender, and on the other I put on a schrader valve for easy fuel system bleeding.
