I have an Si fuel rail that I'll be using on my poor man's ITR motor. I have a Marshall FP Gauge that I'd like to attach to the end of this fuel rail via a 90-degree fitting of some sort. On the end of the stock rail, there is a brass plug where I'd like to attach my fitting. What I'm wanting to know if this plug is threaded on or pressed in - and if the latter, how do you remove it:




I have seen this done but haven't been able to turn up any info on how it's removed. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much in advance.

 

Hmm, drill and slide hammer? Maybe a screw extractor but it's probably not threaded, they usually use allen plugs for the threaded fittings. If you drill it, it will either come out easy on it's own, or you can rig a slide hammer type deal to put some force on it.

 

Yeah, if it's not threaded, then the drill will be coming out, However if it might be, I hope to save a lot of time by turning it out. Thanks for your response though.

Anyone else have a clue?

 

i dont think is threaded in there, since if it was it would have some kind indent to be able to screw it in

 

yeah like they said its probably not threaded but just because it doesnt have an indent doesnt mean anything. A TPS doesnt have indents.

TPS is an entirely different scenario. It was designed so that even service tech's should not be able to adjust the TPS
