Ok, maybe a really stupid question, but is the yellow circle in this picture what I am looking for. I don't think my car has any sort of port there. Also, what kind of valve is that in the green circle

Look over the right head. There is an adapter that fits between the fuel rail and the vacuum.

Nx sells them but I think they are only tapped on one side. Mine was a homemade copy and they tapped it on both sides (I work with machinists).

I think the green circle is for AC.

Oh I thought it was supposed to be installed on the other side in the fuel line. I have this adapter and I would rather hook it up there at the furthest from the fuel line in the second fuel rail to get a better reading. That sensor is actually the fuel pressure sensor for the computer. I wish they would have some instructions or even a little scetch of that damn thing. So that's why they give you screws for it. Ugh. Thanks
This is the fitting I have.

Ok, I have come to the conclusion that my car just does not have a schrader valve on the fuel rail. It must be one of the later '03 stangs that they stopped putting it on. So, I was going to tap into the fuel line using the fuel T fitting included in the kit in the spot I have circled below in the picture. Would this be a safe and usable spot?

yes the yellow one is the factory test port. Not sure what the green one is. Factory test port seemed to be the easiest way to get fuel, without cutting anything.

Cutting fuel lines can be bad. Just spend a little extra and get the adapter.
