I have no spare parts.  So I would like to either rent from somebody or buy a fitting that I can hook up to the 1.6td injection pump in my 85 jetta td so I can check out the pump pressure.

If no one comes up with one for you soon I still have an extra bolt, some nuts and a banjo fitting I think and I could fab one up for you next weekend.  I will check back Friday on this.

This is what I rigged up.  Bolt on the bottom drilled out the top surface and soldered a nut on that.  Banjo on the bottom goes to line and fittings and then the gauge.  Top Banjo is the normal one with the restriction and the two different sized ports for the injector return and tank return.

Pretty simple, threaded the line with others through the dash to gauges on a salvaged center column out of a GTI I think it was.  Room for five gauges.

I never got one and still figured it would be a good thing to have in the tool drawer even though my car runs ok right now?
