How to check fuel pressure?

No schrader valve, no way to attach anything to that stupid banjo bolt. I heard some way with "T" 'ing off a line and attaching the gauge, anyone want to expand on that?

You should be able to get a connector for your tester that you use on the fuel filter,either a banjo fitting just like your fuel line or one that goes where the 10mm bolt is in the top of the filter.

I'm reading that Honda sells a fuel pressure tester kit but it's $350. I've yet to find anything that has a working adaptor

I just came across this video the other day. I hope it can help you out.
I at least hope the video is entertaining, if it's not informative.

I think I've seen it if it's the one where he dumps a cup of fuel out the filter. Lol

You could always buy one of those ebay adjustable fpr. Most of them come with a gauge.
