Question fuel rail questions

Bought a car ran great. Began having idle issues and then no crank or start. Checked fuses relays wires replaced starter and battery. Plugs look fine but will probably replace since they are cheap. Car cranks now but won't fire. Fuel pump primes with key on. Everything else is normal no cel or ses light. I plan to get a inline spark tester and fuel presuree gauge.

I've never messed with fuel systems besides a fuel filter on a stock ls1 car with stock fuel rail. car has a 102 with billet rails. Id like to evenually put a pressure gauge on the rail end. I cant find a regulator anywhere? Not under car either. Do i just unhook line on rail to depressurize? Where can i hook up just a gauge to check preasure not permanent? I'm unsure since every setup I'veseen online Iis different.

You can check the pressure on the passenger side fuel rail. Just unscrew the fitting and put a gauge there. The regulator is in the tank.

After unscrewing it this would go there correct? Would this fit without different fittings?

This is the fitting removed. So the new one with gauge wold replace it when it's screw into the rail and the gauge has one that screws into this? Sorry I don't know anything about fittings I just want to order the correct part
