    Default FUEL PRESSURE TAP for GAUGES

    WHAT IS IT?? It is called the a FUEL PRESSURE TAP (FPT) and it provides a very simple way to hook up your fuel pressure gauge.

    You just remove the plastic factory air bleed ontop of the filter then replace it with the FPT. Takes two minutes.(hand tighten). To bleed air from the filter just losen the FPT (like you did before with the old plastic bleeder) until air escapes and fuel comes out, retighten and you are done.

    If you would like, you can also plumb in a tee and a valve to direct the fuel into a container (while bleeding the filter) instead of it making a mess on your engine and down into the engine valley.

    The picture shows an electrical gauge sensor, but you can also run a mecanical gauge/hose.

    After it's installed just run the hose or wire from it to your gauge and you are done.

    This is a brand new product on the market specially machined for the 6.5 turbo diesel.

    We are the only manufacture of this item.

    Takes minutes to install.

    It is made of stainless steel.

    You will use the hose kit or sender unit that comes with your gauge.

    The FPT comes with 1/8" female pipe threads ontop.

    You are buying the FPT ONLY. The brass 1/8" x hose fitting for the hose connection or sender unit comes with your gauge's.


    Just remove the factory plastic bleed screw.

    FPT with a tee and valve plumbed in. The hose allows you to catch the fuel while you bleed the filter. Nice and clean. Notice the OPS extension hose on the left.
