Can this be used for a fuel pressure test at the Schrader valve?

This tool is screwed into the spark plug hole of standard gasoline motors. All of the compression tester adapters are designed to screw into the female threaded spark plug hole. A fuel pressure gauge is usually attached in some way to the gasoline fuel pressure lines. Ford uses a Schrader male valve, GM used a larger male valve. But many manufacturers may provided different, such as some Hondas have a female thread, and others have some other means. Not always easy to install a fuel pressure tester to test the fuel pressure, volume and leak down rates.

It should, as it is equipped with the needed Schrader valve. You might find these 2 articles helpful.http://troubleshootmyvehicle.com/gm/4.3L-5.0L-5.7L/how-to-test-the-fuel-pump-1 http://troubleshootmyvehicle.com/gm/4.3L-5.0L-5.7L/testing-the-spider-fuel-injector-2

You should be able to use this gauge on a diesel or gas engine, just as long as you know the fuel pressure does not exceed the 15psi max pressure of the gauge. It can damage and or cause the gauge to leak.

You can use it, but you must have the air pump adapter on the valve to get a reading. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DW444C6?cache=011ebe00f10d082a3a338bf9e69ad0e2π=SY200_QL40&qid;=1410197251&sr;=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1

Schraeder was fine. It would not lock onto a Presta valve - even with the adapter. I returned it.

Theoretically. But I'd have a professional check out the valve and replace if necessary. High pressure can be dangerous.

It should but you would need the little needle to put on the schrader part of the valve.

No. I put a schrader valve adapter on my road bike's presta valve and the gauge wasn't able to read the pressure.

i cant remember if the throttlr bodu injection had a schrader valve test port or if it could be adapted. sorry

Yes. You might have to wait for the tanks to build up pressure during a vehicle application.

It will work testing the gas pressure coming to the gas valve if the gas valve has a pressure tap which it should.

I do not believe that this cyl leakage tester can be used to check oil pressure.You would better served with an OTC engine oil pressure tester (or equivalent).

I have no idea I've only used it with racing fuel that had water in it. Oil is lighter than water so my guess would be yes, but I cannot say for sure. The manufacturer has a web site you could contact them and ask.

It connects to a Schrader valve, you could probably use it with a seperate adapter.

No! Its not meant for fuel to run through it. Like others have said it will read poorly at the lower pressures normal vehicles run at. I actually had an Oriley employee suggest doing the same on my F350 diesel. Lets just say I bought a tester there, had him do it and promptly refund my money as it didnt work as he thought ;-)

Yes, But you really do not need the whole gauge. Use the end of a cylinder compression tester that screws into the spark plug hole. The other end that the gauge goes on, plug your air line into. If you use the Gauges, just turn your Regulator all the way up so you get Max. Pressure in the cylinder Chamber.Pressurize cylinder with both valves closed AND Piston at the Top of the Cylinder.If you loose pressure the piston will keep the valve from falling all the way down into the Cylinder.
