New to superduty side...

I stay on the OBS powerstroke side, but am working on my brothers superduty. How can I check his fuel pressure? Mine is on the side of the filter bowl, but I cant seem to find his. Now if it is low is there a way to shim the FPR like I did to mine? Thanks

Welcome! I can't recall how to check the pressure, but yes there is a way to shim the FPR on the SD it's just a tad different than the OBS approach. I'll see if I can dig up the info for you.

There is a port on the rear of the bowl that you can take out and insert a threaded fitting.

Nope -- just a plug you take out to install the fitting for the hose to the gauge...

EDIT: I'm slow. LOL
