Follow-up after finding the right-sized fuel rail Schrader adapter
Three years ago, I couldn't find the correct adapter to fit on the Schrader valve on the fuel rail of my M54. Even Andrewwynn didn't know the exact adapter to use, so I found a Ford adapter (also listed to fit BMWs) on Amazon. It wasn't an exact fit, and leaked badly, until I used a lot of Teflon tape. Then, the internal O-ring got shredded, so I never tried it again. See https://xoutpost.com/1220344-post51.html for details.
Fast forward to today: I ordered a different size of Ford adapter from Amazon, two of them for half the price of the earliers one, and whaddayaknow, it fits the Schrader perfectly! it's a "Fuel Injection Pressure Tester 305.32 Valve Adapter Replacement for F-o-r-d F150", https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09XBFM1Y9...fed_asin_title
No leaks, no runs, no errors! Grab a pair of them!
