[Shotimes] A little advise - Fuel Pressure tester kit

[Carl Prochilo]

Don,  I'm a little stumped on this.  I bought the tester from AZ part
number CP7818.  It is exactly as you described it.

The difficulty I am having is this.  When connecting the tester to the
fuel rail test port, I don't get a reading.  What I think is happening is
that the test port adapter is not depressing the plunger in the schrader
valve.  AZ wasn't of any help to me.  From the way I see the pieces
fitting together, I don't see how this could possibly work for ANY Ford
cars.

What am I missing?
