Fuel Pressure Gauge Question / FCA

Are folks putting a gauge on the high-pressure side of the fuel system as well as the low (lift pump) pressure side? Kinda dicey ain't it ?

One other thing.....I called the Dodge ******* and asked about a Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) for a 2003 CTD.........and he said he doesn't sell it separately, only with the CP3 pump.......is this accurate? How abouta Cummins part number..???????? Thanks....--Curtis

Here's the Dodge part number. Get a new parts guy too!

5183245AA

List price is 125.00 - I wouldn't pay a nickel over that!

Oh, and most people are putting an electronic rail pressure guage on. I don't know if a manual guage will read very accurate. There is a lot of pressure and it goes up and down very quick. Most of the electronic guages tap into the factory rail pressure sensor and are quite easy to install. I'd look at either the Quadzilla Commander or the Quadzilla Rail Pressure Guage.
