Not sure about fittings, but you will def need the 0-100 psi version of the gauge.

yep i plan on getting the 0-100 psi gauge. As far as the fitting goes ^^^ that is the exact one i was looking at, i just don't know what size the test port on the S3 rail is. Then as far as the other side of that fitting i will need some kinda cap that is meant to hold pressure, unlike the stock one on the s3 is just a dust cover.

the fuel pressure sensor fitting that came with my scangauge is a -4an fitting with a 1/8npt port. Todd @ AeroForce verified this is what we need for the
PTGT & SRT4 fuel rail. It comes with the cap you mentioned

Todd at ERROR-farce is a moron. just add this one to his long list of F-ups

The test port is NOT -4 AN,,, I repeat it is NOT -4 AN,,, its 3/8-24 SAE flare.


-4AN will screw on but the AN's 37 degree flare DOES NOT match up well to the SAE flare of 45 degrees. Eventually it will leak.

heres an Earl's But you can pick up a SAE flare to NPT adapter from the hardware store.

4AN to 3/8 24 SAE flare

Thanks Duster for clarifing that. I didn't mean to pass on misinformation. I was just passing on what i was told. I guess I wasted my money on that part.
$25 bucks down the drain

Send it back to Todd. He misrepresented the part. Its his own fault he doesn't know what the hell he's doing ,,not yours.

Better yet, mail it to me, I'll tie it to a brick along with a note clearly explaining my opinion on his competancy and I'll throw it through his window.
