i hate it too, the exhaust is more of a pain in the ass... ive been scraping it all the time, if something falls down god forbid then its fuel pump time. How long can you leave a fuel pressure guage on there for?
I don't have a schrader valve, i have it removed for an adapter that runs 1/8NPT to my fuel selenoid for my wet kit. So I removed the fuel hose that came with the guage, and screwed it the wet kit fuel line right into the guage. I've had it on there a day or two, kinda coming out of the hood so i can see it on the windshield. How long can you normally keep a guage like that on there for? It just started making this annoying rattling noise that i thought might be the engine, but it turns out its the guage rattling. Shoulda just bought a autometer one for the money and been done with it.
The only bad thing KK is that if it doesnt hold line in the line after the engines off, I can't test leak down to know if say one of the injectors is leaking because the line doesn't hold pressure.

Leak down of injectors... meh... They really don't go bad.... no very often at least.
