Default nitrous install question (pic added)

i posted this in the pipes juice and boost section but no one answered. does anyone have a pic of where you run your fuel line on a fox body mustang. my nitrous kit was used so it didn't come with any instructions so i have no idea where the fuel line goes. does it come off the fuel rail somewhere? and what does the shrader valve look like cause i'm not sure if i have one of those either.

What kind of kit do you ahve, wet; dry? The shrader valve is located on the metal fuel line on the front passenger side of the motor

Sorry i dont have much experience with wet kits. It sounds like your nitrous kit takes fuel from the schader valve though

It looks the same a "tire"schader valve. If you have a wet kit you can pull the valve out of the schader and get your fuel there.

It is located on the passenger side behind the Alternator. You will need a 1/16 NPT fitting to a 1/8 NPT and then a 1/8 to a -4 or -6 (depends on your kit) You will need to take out the actual valve inside the fitting before you put the fitting in...

that just confused the hell out of me. so i have to go buy some fittings other then what the kit came with? is it like a t fitting thing or does the shrader valve not go anywhere its just blocked off?

Yeah give us some info on the kit so we can help you better. The NPT fittings are just little adapters that thread on to the valve so you can hook a fuel line up to it
