This is your lucky day. I'm selling stock in a big bridge in Alaska and honest, it goes somewhere
And it will check Ford EFI too, honest!

You have my attention.....
Corey,
I don't see the adapter for the Schrader valve setup. I got mine at autozone for 30 bucks. Works on my MGM, my dad's 94 T-bird and mine too. The only thing it doesn't do is fit inline behind my dad's fuel filter, but that's not a problem for me. I personally wouldn't buy that.
My 2 cents.
HTH

I'll keep that in mind. I saw the same set up on Harbor Freight.... I might call them and ask if it comes with the Schrader adapter.
I'd really rather buy it locally, but the $10 savings appeals to my cheap-ass tendencies...
The most expensive part is the "Shrader Valve adapter! The normal term for this adapter is "Gas Chuck". I built my own out of a Gas Chuck from Parker (brand name) P/N 8708150000 (Visit their website and type in your zip code to find a local distributor). The reason I went with this style, other than a huge lack of choices, is that it has the "T" handle on it. You can screw the bottom section onto the Valve (it swivels) while maintianing the outlet port direction. Once it is seated securely, then you turn in the T handle to contact the Valve stem and allow pressure to go out of the rail and into the guage. My Shrader Addapter has a 1/8"NPT male outlet, so I bought BRass 1/8" npt coupler, screwed that onto the Adapter, bought a Grease gun rubber hose, which is also 1/8" male NPT and on the guage end a 1/8' to 1/4" brass coupler to which I added a 0-100 Pressure guage.
I can't remember off hand how much the adapter cost, wasn't cheap as it is for High Pressure Accumulator charging, but at the time it was all I could find locally. If you visit the web site above and have a look, maybe print it out, you can take the Pic to Grainger or any other industrial or hydraulic supply shop to see what they can find.
I didn't mind paying the price cuase the adapter does double duty for me, I also do the odd Nitrogen charge for accumulators. Bonus, next I am going to put together another hose and valve system so I can charge my tires with Nitrogen as well. Same Shrader Adpter works on the tire stems as well! I have access to Bottles of Nitrogen!!!
