    Default Nitrous NX part question. Fuel tap

    Do you guys only have one stainless steel for fuel? My nitrous kit came eith 2 nitrous lines and 1 fuel line. The fuel line is attached to the solenoid and is 12" long only. Am i suppise to tap a fuel line in the engine bay with a t splitter?
    my kit came without the tap T splitter for fuel.

    yup. buy some fuel hose and tap it with a T fitting. one outlet will go to the fuel rail, the other will go to the fuel solenoid.

    Thanks guys, seems like i'm missing that blue NX tap. Smokey, where did you get your T splitter with a female to fit the stainless stain fuel? Only if you were closer to the city so yu could help.

    You can pick up a T fitting at most autozones, value, home depot, ace, etc.

    You'll also need the two barbs for the fuel line, t-clamps and an adapter to your stainless steel line.

    Its actually 11/32 if you can find it, but most people just use 5/16 and some muscle.

    Yes. I also tapped an extra 1/8NPT port so I could run a fuel pressure safety switch off it.

    Usually the T fittings will come with two female ports (either 1/4 or 1/8 npt) and you will have to buy the correct sized barb to put in there depending on what size hose you want to run (5/16 in your case). Screw the barbs into the T, attach your hose, connect the feed line to your third port and your good to go when it comes to tapping for fuel.
