I got the gauge, hose, and adapeters from Alan C. He had the hose made up, and happened to find the right fitting for the fuel rail.

For a fuel pressure gauge, I am happy having a non-permanent installation. I found this guy who supposedly did a replica of the VW 1318 fuel pressure gauge (which is specified in the shop manual):

So I bought one, but the fitting for the fuel rail isn't right, and I need to replace that fitting (on the gauge) to make the gauge assembly useful.

I really need to get a "brass ball-seat hose nipple" with a metric thread. An example with regular pipe thread is shown here:

(search for "hose nipple", on page 214)
