Default Does anyone know what this blue adapter is called? And where to get it?

My fuel rail had a leak, and while trying to take this blue adapter off, it broke off part of the fuel rail and its now attached to the adapter. It broke off right where my leak was, I'm going to assume corrosion is what broke it off. Either way, I need another one... Anyone know where to get it? The adapter is used for my interior gauges. It broke off where the red line is.

The adapter is a #4 female to #4 male with an 1/8" npt port. Some of them have two.

I've thought about that, but I figured it probably isn't too expensive to get a new one.

This car has actually been a good car. I've had it for close to 2 yrs, and the only real problems that I have had have been a bad fuel pump and this fuel leak(unfortunately, my fueling problems have been a PITA to fix). For a 10+ yr old car with 120K+, its going to need maintence. I have no regrets buying the car.

No doubt man. The car was so clean in person when I looked at it couple yrs ago. Hope you get it fixed, bump.
