1999 E39 540i Fuel Pressure Tester

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Long time reader, first time poster.

I've been having a few issues with longer than normal cranking times on start-up, and want to check the fuel pump pressure, and fuel pump check valve.

No problem finding a Fuel Pump Tester, but I cannot locate a fitting that will screw on to the Schrader valve on the car's fuel rail.

Can anyone help me locate / buy / hire / borrow! an adapter ?

I've attached a pic of the valve on the fuel rail.

Thanks in advance for any comments / queries.
