Fuel pipe to rail quick connect - LotusTalk

ads_green · 09-13-2009, 03:33 PM

Does anybody know the name of the connector used on the pipe to the fuel rail. Not at the fuel rail end but the quick disconnect with the orange sleeve?

EDIT:
I'm looking to put an inline fuel pressure sensor in and was thinking that this would be an ideal place as I could simply do it without cutting any existing fuel lines and when finished it's easy to replace.

It's this one -

Be careful. The aftermarket female quick connects do not work well with the Toyota rail and hard lines and will sometimes feel like they've snapped on but will later pop off. Very dangerous.

You can easily add a gauge if you have our fuel rail kit

but if you don't want to do that my recommendation is to cut the plastic fuel line off of the OEM ends, reuse the ends and replace the plastic line with 5/16" high pressure rubber fuel hose and use an inline 5/16" fitting with a 1/8 npt port to add your gauge.
