    schrader valve fitting...

    I bought an electric fuel gauge. The sending unit is 1/8 npt male fitting... Inorder to mount this on the fuel rail I need a -4an female to 1/8 npt female adapter correct?


    The stuff I've found for "schrader fuel fitting" are all like 20 bucks each, where the -4an are only $5.

    Why do you want a schrader? Thats nothing but an AN male fitting with a valve core inside of it. If you could get a tee fitting with a 1/8'' npt fitting in the middle, that would easy.

    The aluminum fitting at the end... I need one of those, and can't find it anywhere. Just a straight fitting to go from my schrader valve (assuming its 4an female) to 1/8 npt female for my gauge setup.

    So we are looking for something cheaper than 18 bucks? Really? sure you can put a bunch of fittings together to make one but your just creating more potential for a leak even if they are an fittings. Caspers is like 13 bucks plus shipping i just ordered mine just to be done with it. I will pay 2 bucks difference to save from having the trouble of screwing everything together
