hey all, i NOW realize i am in way over my head. but i need help now coz i cant drive my car until its fixed.

i recently brought a FPR form underground imports and to install it i need a fuel pressure gauge, i went out and got one and i tried installing it but it keeps leaking fuel. where is a pic of what i have done

i have got the clamps and fittings all tight and everything but it is still leaking fuel, does anyone have any ideas what i can do to stop the leaking fuel? should i buy a new fuel hose, and if so how do i take it off the connectors from the fuel filter and intake mani, coz they seem to be in somehow i cant get out..

Thanks for ur help

if u are using one of them clamps that u can just squeeze togheter with a pair of plyers then maybe u should try and use a differnt clamp as that one might not be tight enough, so try usein the clamps that u use a screw driver to tighten.

some thing like this one http://www.gatorbrand.com/clamp.gif but smaller

Do you have an aftermarket fuel rail? If so, just get the fittings to run off one of the extra ports they put in. I know AEM and Edelbrock have them and a lot of others do too. If not, get the clamps bigjo5 posted about and new hose.
