Default Boost gauge line

for those running autometer boost gauges with the nylon tubing it comes with, how did u hook up the nylon tubing to your vacuum source? is there a location that the brass fittings the gauge came with will fit on? or did u use some other fittings? thanks

i went to NAPA and got the necessary fittings to make a tee. it's not too hard. just take the brass fitting that came with the guage and compare.

I lucked out and found a T that the nylon line would pressure fit into.
If you cant find anything I would suggest a rubber vacuum line going from the gauge to the manifold.

I prefer to run a hard line, such as copper tubing.

That's what I did. Much easier that way.
