Fuel Pressure Testing Gauge

Hi All,

I've finally  got my 75 450SE D-Jet running pretty well except for a rough idle. I've discovered that an incorrect fuel pressure setting can be the cause of this problem. I would like to test the fuel pressure in my car but do not own a fuel pressure tester gauge. I've been trying to locate one here in Massachusetts but can only find gauges for use on American cars. Can anyone tell me what the proper tester gauge should be for use on a D-Jet 450SE? Also, I've read how to do the actual testing but can't figure out where in the fuel rail you  hook up the testing gauge. Has anyone out there performed this test? What are the correct procedures to follow?

Thanks,

Brett
