Default fuel pressure adapter

Im installing a autometer fuel pressure gauge (electrical). I have stock fuel rails...how do I tie into the fuel system... i was thinking that I could remove the pin thing in the schrader valve on the drivers side of the fuel rail and put an elbow in to hook up to the solinoid (however you spell it). How is everyone else doing it and what adapter are you using????

Yes that is what you need to do, remove the schrader valve . Then you need a female #4 an to female 1/8 npt fitting. I get them from a local parker store.

Yep, except your hydraulic fitting dealer is probably going to call it #4 female JIC to 1/8 female NPT.
