    The trick was the connections from the hoses to the Schrader valves on the engine. Even though the video states the connectors from the gauges to the hose are not known, I think they came with the hoses that I bought from <See Announcements>. The connectors from the hoses to the Schrader valves were purchased from a local hydraulics shop. I then made a simple hanging system. I took a video here so you can see.

    Super important fella's. Be sure to get Glycerin-filled gauges and the lines are ethanol gas resistant. The gauges noted in the video are definitely Glycerin filled, otherwise the gauges tend to bounce around and it becomes hard to get an accurate reading. I have an email out to the manufacturer of the lines to see if they are gas resistant. I have only used them a few times and didn't notice anything immediately but the hoses could deteriorate over time. Also, these lines are only good to 120 PSI and so far they hold pressure at 110 to 115 no problem. It would be good to have them able to handle to about 160 PSI just in case. But anyways, thought you should all know.

    Has anybody found a place to get the pressure relief/bleeder valves?

    Try Grainger. You'll need your Schrader valve size to choose the correct fitting.

    If you figure it out let us know.
