Electric Fuel pressre gauge and Shrader Valve?
I am wanting to put in an electric fuel pressure gauge and most people are putting the sender by the schrader valve. Can anyone post a picture of the schrader valve and where it is located for me.

I don't have a pic of one, but the valve should be on the fuel rail. Looks like an oversize tire valve with a cap.

I still don't know why you bother doing searches for people, Gordon. 99% of the time you get no thanks.

I am sorry for not thanking you. I really do appreciate it. The links you gave me helped a little but not as much as you telling me that in my pic what I circled is the shrader valve. Thanks for helping me with this.
