I bought one of the long line test-n-tune fuel pressure gauges from Postons. I don't want to mount it permanently at cowl area at back of hood (personal taste and preference) and haven't yet hooked it up. I have a FPG under hood currently bolted directly to rail. I'm thinking of some nicely done mount that would allow one to slip or remove the long line gauge from mount under hood to use under wiper w/duct tape. Anyone fabricated up something like this? I want to do something other than zip ties. Sure would like to hear what you did and pics would be super too. Thanks! :)
 
I did this-
got a fuel pressure gauge from Autozone ($24), went to K-mart and got a grease gun hose($5), went to hardware store and got a 1/8" coupler ($1.50). and put them all together, now the line is like 3' long.
My temp setup is using a piece of coat hanger, specially bent to mount with a screw in the bottom of the hood near an existing hole near the underhood light. I am gonna fab up a piece of aluminum one day to make it look a lil prettier to replace the coat hanger. I was thinking the same way, I don't want it permanent, so I was gonna put a small stud with a wingnut in place of my screw under the hood.
