instead of clamping the fuel line, remove the fuel pump fuse, proceed to run the engine until it dies out, and crank once more to remove pressure from the line.
just a note, liquid filed anti-vibration gauge sometimes will leak due to high-temperature engine bay (liquid expansion with higher temp). Use a nonfilled gauge should be safer.
Perhaps if you buy a cheap one. Otherwise this is what they were originally designed for. Often in early aircraft. These gauges are filled partially with Glycerine, a liquid that's designed for temperature extremes. Liquid filled gauges are designed for direct mounting on equipment, as it compensates for vibration, corrosion and pulses.
Just to double confirm to make sure I will do this right...so the pressure gauge is place on the fuel line before the fuel rail? your confirmation much appreciated. thank you in advance

The velocer raptors are coming !
Great video I might fit one in my Lotus 7 inspired Westfield restore diary.
Thanks for sharing 👍
nice video, I think I am about to install one
Thanks man for info.now I have a idea for install fuel press meter. Use inline adapter for fitting fuel press sensor.
wraps the threads approximately 100 times. no leaks!

Good god I have never seen anyone use that much Teflon tape? Bro you only need about 1-2" or a couple rotations!
Yeah just keep giving it more tape...
Whats the size of fitting?
Where can I get the inline adaptor?
overkill in the tape... 2 wraps is plenty
He did like 15 wraps!! I thought he was going to strip away the threads, when he tightened up the fitting!
What size was the t piece
You dont use tape on fuel lines. Much less 100 wraps like you did.
seemed to work ..what should be used ?
tape or locktite (thread sealer/locker) which is better?
None. You don't use anything on fuel lines.
Damn! Dude! 5min of the video is wrapping tape....

yes...before
Have a walbro 255 LPH?
question ......... why would I have high fp?
Ryan k to big of a pump
The liquid gauge is going to give a bad reading while the liquid is at engine tempiture from the liquid putting pressure on the unit
Can you please elaborate?
BIRDS BIRDS BIRDS!!!
I think I just inhaled some toluene because I hear birds chirping everywhere. Somebody likes to huff spray paint!
Atleast you still had rubber hoses to cut and not the heat shrink rubbish.
Way to much tape.
