Should have a test port on fuel rail. remove the schrader valve (there will be fuel pressure in the rail unless you dissable fuel pump and start car) use teflon tape on threads to seal.

Test port on the fuel rail... Be careful with the teflon tape, dont want it heading down to the injectors.

Read the instructions carefully if available. Some guages use the part that threads into the fuel rail as the ground , so teflon tape will interfere. It happened to me with my Cyberdyne fuel pressure guage.
