How can I run fuel line for nitous and still keep fp gauge?

I want to keep my fp gauge but can't find anybody whe sells an adapter so I can run the fuel line to my plate, and the line to my fp gauge. I've seen Ts around but can find a female, male, male connector. Anybody know where I can find one. Thanks Brad.

what type of kit do ya have. I know on my NX kit the fitting that screws onto the bottle(blue anodized fitting) has 1 female and 2 males, one is for the gauge and the other is for the tranducer for the auto heater. I dont see why it wouldnt work for what you need. You should be able to order it from NX or IRS.

I don't quite follow you? The fuel pressure gauge taps into the schrader valve on the fuel rail. And that's the same place where the fuel line to the plate gets it's fuel. So there's only one fitting but I need two to run both of them. So I figure I'll need a t that goes onto the schrader so I can run both lines. Put simply I have one fitting but two lines. I can't find the t that I need anywhere, I've seen people that have a gauge with a wet kit so I know there's a way to do it.
The kit is nitrous works wet by the way. Anybody out there know how I can do this???

Kirschman was thinking Nitrous Pressure guage....

Get one of these in 4AN:

Part # 926104


Put the Fuel Supply line for the plat on the end opposite the Schraeder Valve. Put the fitting for your FP guage on the Side port.

Enjoy!

An alternative would be a "gauge block". Its a fitting with male AN on one end, female AN on the other, and a 1/8" NPT fitting on the side for the typical gauge or sending unit. NOS sells these in -4AN (PN 16770) and -6AN (PN 16771). Schrader->-4AN Hose->-4AN gauge block->PN 17901 -4AN union->-4AN hose->plate.

Another approach... NOS PN 17535 90deg -4AN swivel fitting off the Schrader. NOS 15230-2 24" -4AN x 1/8" NPT braided hose, into a 1/8" NPT brass "tee" from any hardware store, and a similar -4AN braided hose from the tee to the plate. Mount the guage in the side of the tee. Schrader->PN 17535->PN 15230-2 hose->1/8" tee->PN 15230-2 hose->plate.
