thanks

I thought there was a barb on the fuel rail, been awhile since I've looked at one and I don't have one to look at.

I found out that by the right MacPherson strut mount there are fuel connections ,
the black fuel pipe is output and blue fuel pipe is return
I hooked my fuel pressure gauge between the removed black pipe connector and the hose going to the common rail
My pressure was 44psi engine off and 36psi running

cheers
hank
