the schrader valve is located right next to the front of the passenger side valve cover. Look on the fuel lines, there should be a part that sticks out and has a valve stem cap on it.

look on the stainless hard line behind ur alternator, to the right of ur mass air flow sensor.it sticks out like a valve stem and has a black screw cap on it. how are u going to tap it? I took out the valve part of it and hooked a hose onto their for my kit.

Rail and pressure reg. should not have nothing to do with it. Do you have after market fuel lines to? It is on the fuel line down by #1 spark plug.

my nitrous kit came with a fitting that you can screw into where the schrader valve is located and the 4AN line will connect to it
