Anyone know a good valve removal tool that will work on this fuel rail?

I don't want to buy one that won't fit.

Also I have a old rail with one but got a part number for a replacement valve?

Thanks

A guess: If it is similar to a tire valve, you can use a valve core removal tool (available at most auto parts stores, maybe Walmart).

I took mine out to add a fuel pressure sender, but it's been too long for me to remember exactly how I did it. I don't remember it being hard, so that makes me think the core remover worked.

Yup, same as any tire schrader valve.

Guys,

Just went through this (had slight leak on the original high side schrader valve). If you have an R-12 valve, you'll need an R-12 tool, which is quite a bit larger in diameter than a R134a tool. I picked up a set (schrader valves and removal tools) on Amazon that worked great.. I'll get a picture posted a bit later this morning..
