Default Help installing a Fuel Pressure Guage

Hey guys, could use some input if you have the time. My 02 has a 1/2 inch braided line with an untapped 90 elbow coming off of the ip going to the reservoir. I have an edge J/A but am having a hard time understanding how to make the banjo bolt or an equivalent work with the edge. I had a short and now I think my ECM is acting weird and my lift pump is intermitent when turned on and the truck has a different idle now. Just want to make sure my fuel pressure is good so I can trouble shoot some of this other stuff going on. Any help would be great..., thanks guys

If its coming from the transfer pump you can use it.

The elbow itself is not tapped just a smooth 90 coming from the filter housing to the IP. The smooth 90 elbow is the same on both ends for the IP and filter housing. I am out of town with work or I would put up some pictures maybe would help. Sorry still getting used to the terms. Hopefully I am not describing an apple when I am trying to talk about an orange.

I suggest one of these then:
BANJO BOLT - TAPPED ('98.5-'09, 5.9L & 6.7L)-Dodge Cummins Diesel Truck Accessories – Geno’s Garage

Replaces your untapped banjo bolt with one that it tapped.
