I want to rent a fuel pressure test gauge from Autozone. Can anyone help guide me into using it on my car?

whats your end goal here?
you should have a little green cap on your fuel line you can hook it up too. it takes all of 15 seconds.

"FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
Before disconnecting fuel line, release fuel pressure from fuel line to eliminate danger.
NOTE:


Prepare pans or saucers under the disconnected fuel line because the fuel may spill out. The fuel
pressure cannot be completely released because V35 models do not have fuel return system.


Use Fuel Pressure Gauge Kit (J-44321) to check fuel pressure.
1. Release fuel pressure to zero. Refer to
EC-44, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE
"
.
2. Install the inline fuel quick disconnected fitting between fuel
damper and injector tube.
3. Connect the fuel pressure test gauge (quick connector adapter
hose) to the inline fuel quick disconnected fitting.
4. Turn ignition switch ON and check for fuel leakage.
5. Start engine and check for fuel leakage.
6. Read the indication of fuel pressure gauge"

Good luck

You need a special adapter and I don't think it comes standard with fuel pressure testers. It sits between the fuel damper on the passenger side and the fuel line. You'll also need a new o-ring once you open that line up. What makes you think you need to test your pressure? I bought one of the adapters and it was like 30 bucks if I remember correctly.

 

You need a fuel tap. Z1 sells one specifically for the G. Best to buy a guage to have hooked up for continuous reading.

 

I bet he has figured it out in the almost 10 years since he posted this question. . . . .
