I Got a mechanical isspro fuel gauge, now what?
I got the guard. But I don't know what to connect it too I'm very confused on what I should do. I have the upgraded 1/2 inch lines. I want to run it in the cab I don't care about gas in it. How do I go about going from either the IP or airdog to my cab.??

With 1/2 line I would assume you don't have banjo bolts anymore..... This is what I use and it works great...RUSSELL FUEL PRESSURE TAKE OFF (1/8" NPT side port)

TO OP: sorry to hi jack, this post made me want to ask some questions. I've got the newer airdog with quick connects, been looking for a good source on fittings so I can tie my electric FP sending unit into the 1/2 line. I had thought to just cut the line put in a "T" and put in a section of hose with appropriate fittings at the end, but finding a 1/2 barbed T here locally is like trying to find sasquatch . I like the fitting HRD posted up, makes it the job more professial. But in big letters it says not for airdog with quick connect fittings.
On another note, Can I remove the test plug from my VP and put the sending unit directly into there, or is that a bad place to measure FP?

I'm not !00% sure, which plug. During my reading of different threads, I have heard the plug by the return line . I'll see if I can't find the thread.

I can't find that thread, but if someone could post up a diagram or pic of the correct (test port) plug, I can see about getting mine hooked up.

Heres what I was thinking, the Airdog came with the fitting that replaces the banjo bolt in there now. I was thinking I could get that fitting HRD posted and just screw in the VP and then screw the airdog fitting into that. if it would work that way.
But if there is a place on the pumps itself, I would prefer to do it that way.

I am unaware of any plug to pull out. Most the time a tapped banjo bolt its used to measure fuel pressure. When AirDogs are used and the banjo is replaced with JIC/AN fittings, it is different.
With your AirDog already in, and the JIC/AN fitting on the VP, just replace the fitting that came int he AirDog kit with the one above.
