Does anyone know where to get a gauge for checking fuel restriction/pressure at the schrader valve next to altenator?Or P/N for quick disconnect? Brand?I know Kennedy Diesel has one,but 150 plus shipping and his only goes to 7.5 psi....Thanks

Found... Kent Moore J-44638 is the gauge but $350.00 ..anyone no what type quick disconnect they use...we use compuchek at DDC thought maybe a GM tech could tell me what type connection is on the DM..

Why do you need one that measures to +/- 7?

Our trucks are restricted if the vacuum at the valve is over 5. Normal is 2.5 to 3?

When you run a lift pump you will have positive pressure at the valve...Fass and Air Dog 8-10 psi depends on pump model...

John used to also have this same type of gauge with a range of vacuum to 15 PSI. Give him a call.

Yep JOHN from Kennedy said they have a 15 psi gauge and 150.00 is probably a good deal from what I have seen so far...250 for Kent Moore gauge...went to a couple stores Parker ect. to see if we could figure out valve..must be a Japanese type connection..Can anyone tell me if valve unscrews from stem and what type of thread..?

Why not just run from the bleeder port
