Glowshift fuel pressure thread adapter

Gentlemen

looking for the adapter that pugs into my fuel bowl and connects the fuel pressure sensor for my glowshift fuel pressure gauge. I ordered one from Amazon but is going to take a couple of weeks to get. Was wondering if somebody had an extra to sell me. Please let me know. Thanks

if you have the possibility to machine an adapter yourself on a lathe, I could give you the sketch if you want. I do not know the connection of your glowshift fuel pressure gauge. Most of the sensors have a thread NPT1/8".

Did you try ordering one directly from Glowshift?

its possible they are out of stock due to China closure.

go to napa I think they may have. Forgot, take the bowl plug and then the pressure reader so they can match threads. Or maybe even a good hydraulic line company in your area.

The threads to the test port are M12x1.5. Most gauges are 1/8" NPT (either male or female)

Thanks for the offer but that is way beyond my skill set.
Wish I could. Looks like fun. Thanks

Yah Hartwig is definitely a more skilled member than most. But I'll say watching his work and reading his posts will make us all a little more knowledgeable about how the stuff we take for granted every day, is made. And what it takes to make these parts.
Hartwig this one's for you. Nice work.

Visurveyor, I am only shaped by my many years of experience with LandRover which are handed over to the customer as a "kit". They say they are like a banana, they ripen at the customer

Amicus, as I already suspected above (Bismic too), your sensor has NPT1/8".
If you like I can make you an adapter. But I would have to send it around half the globe, because I am here in Germany.
the offer stands if you don't get further.

Totally appreciate the offer, Hartwig. But I believe SmackDaddy is helping me out. We are only separated by 100 miles or so.
