Exclamation Part number

Auto Meter part number 3280 is the NPT adaptor to fit the sender into the fuel rail.

Hope that helps......Joe

Exclamation Part Numbers

Auto Meter Phantom #5709 is the gauge.
Auto Meter #3280 is the adaptor.

Fuel pressure gauge and A/F ratio

Does the fuel pressure gauge help determine A/F ratio?



If so, how does that work??

Alright, now I'm confused...

soap: Is the correct part number for the adaptor 3280 (what you said initially), or 3208 (which you later replied)...or are they two separate parts and infact we need both?

I have a three gauge pod myself- also with the 2-1/16" Autometer Phantom series Boost and A/F ("light show") gauges that you have, but the bottom spot is still empty because the water temp gauge I wanted to hook up to my IC Res seems to be such a pain to install I don't even want to bother right now. I had been thinking of trying the F/P gauge myself, and with the part #'s you just made my decision that much easier.

Thanks. Later...

GK

Exclamation More Help!!!!!!

Beef....
If you bought the #5709 electric fuel preesure gauge then you need the #3280 NPT adaptor. It is a 1/8" to 1/16" reducer to fit the pressure sender into the rail where the shrader (sp?) valve was at.
