New to me race car has a 4AN schrader valve tee'd into the fuel line for fuel sampling.

My Googling is failing to find a valve that will connect up to get the sample. Don't see anything at Pegasus, Summit, Speedway, etc. 

I need something like this that fits 4AN, one pictured fits a normal schrader:

Aircraft spruce?

4an with a valve is the standard GM fuel pressure test port.  Anything that connects to a GM fuel rail (and some other American cars) for reasons of checking fuel pressure will work.

What are the male fitting threads? Looks like 1/8npt which is super common.

In reply to Ranger50 :

I think it is 1/8 npt.

I punted and ordered a spring style test port with 1/8 npt to replace the 4an fitting.

Didnt find anything at aircraft spruce.

Pick up an old set of R-12 A/C gauges.  That is what they are.  The low side gauge  and hose is perfect.  Or, The Hammer Store has a fuel pressure the kit with that fitting.
