Ok so i went to Autozone and asked for a fuel pressure tester for my truck(told them year and motor) And they gave me one and said it would work. My question is the one they gave me screws into a valve. Does a 95 have a test valve? Or should i take it back and get an inline one? Oh and is there a way to test my fuel pump?

 

There is no test port. You must tie in at the filter or the t-body but the filter is easier.

 

Thats what i thought! Cant trust the people at Autozone! Screwed me over before!

 

I know my 1996 5.7L has a valve just to the side of the throttle and above the distributor...but it's a Vortec motor...would the non vortec motor on a 95 not have that valve?

 

my fuel guage came with adaptors to tap the line as well, did yours come with those accessories?

This is the one I have.


The accessories are Kinda like these but this isnt my model .......

 

1995 and previous with tbi injection does not have the valve, all years newer do.

 

That looks like the one I have, picked mine up from Amazon.com

Yeah no test valve on this one!! What does the psi have to go up to if i get a new gauge? 19?

 

Yup thats the one I have, I got mine at Autozone for $40.

This is my scanner, Mine cant record live data though, I am looking at some laptop monitoring software ,I'll post when I get it.
