Geno's has them for sale for the 2nd gens...some kind of 2 piece kit for aiding in the addition of a fuel pressure guage. The Geno's dude could not help me due to confusion. What exactly are the parts and part #s that I need from their catalog and how do you plumb for a guage? Will I lose the benefit of the bleed screw after I install their fittings? Carmyne

 

The ones Genos lists for the 24v's will work on our trucks too. The factory bleeder screw (metric threads) will be lost to a tapped 1/8'' NPT port that you can either plug or plumb a permanent gauge into.

 

Here's Wannadiesel's setup.

Those banjo bolts will work on any year truck. We only need two.

You don't have to get as elaborate as my setup, a lot of overvalvers are running around with a hardware store needle valve as a combination snubber and emergency gauge shutoff. I just wanted a better shutoff valve, so I needed a snubber, too, and then I decided a petcock would be nice...

 

So your saying to run a FP guage I need 2 of those banjo fittings in addition to the seals? Cause I just ordered 1, ugg

 

Yes you'll be fine with one tapped bolt. Just don't break it by overtightening. They break easily. Thats why I suggest buying two of the tapped version banjos. Also why just drilling your own out aren't the greatest idea. You drill your own out, then break one on reinstall, now your truck is down til you get a replacement from Geno's .., break one you bought from Geno's, you have the stock as a spare/replacement.

Rag, as long as you always prefill your fuel filters upon install you'll never need to worry about the bleeder screw. Even on lift pump r and r, I've never fooled with it.

 

I just re-read your post Bill, and see where you said to buy 2. Hopefully....

 

You only need 1 tapped bolt to run a gauge. I advocate getting a second high flow banjo because it's a cheap fuel flow upgrade. My filter inlet banjo is an untapped high flow.
