Fuel pressure gauge adapter fittings
I'm looking to buy the adapter(s) to put a fuel pressure gauge on my 83' 930 (WUR). If anyone has these parts laying around, and would like to sell them, give me a shout. I'd like to get these from someone who changed their mind, sold their car and removed them, or just used it briefly to test. Thank you!

Look up boxstergt. Len can make you one for a pretty reasonable price.

I made one to install a control pressure gauge with a brass "T" fitting from a local auto parts store. It came with 1/8" pipe threads which is very close to 10x1 metric threads. I ran a 10x1mm tap and die over the threads to modify them and it works fine with no leaks.
I also put a little Permatex non hardening sealant (the brown stuff) on the threads to lubricate them a little while screwing them in and help seal them. |

![]() ![]() Thank you for the referral Rich. Here is an adapter I make up to add a pressure sensor to the WUR...... ![]() I also have a wide selection of custom Metric fittings and Fuel & Oil hoses for most Porsche models or will build to your specs.

I used the method as FJairman to mount a fuel pressure gauge. Works fine with no leaks.

![]() ![]() Here is a 12mm Banjo that will take a shorter version of the adapter shown above...... ![]() It has also been modified to accept a 1/8 MPT pipe fitting, so any variety of fuel components can be attached. Len ![]() |

Here is an example of the 1/8 NPT fitting which Len built for my fuel pressure sensor.
