Default Dumb fuel pressure question

I have a 91 DX hatch and am trying to find out why it wont start.

I need to know how to hook a fuel pressure gauge up to it. I think you do it on the fuel fiilter 6mm bolt.

Can i use any fuel pressure guage, or does it have to have a special fitting to put it on? B/C on my old car there was a schrader valve i hooked it up to and connector seemed a little smaller.

Sorry for the dumb question but I need an answer ASAP.
THANX

I have an Auto Meter fuel pressure guage and I had to get a special fitting. It kinda depends on if you going to use a guage that needs a sending unit (aka electric guage). If the guage is not electric then it depends. The bolt that comes on the guage is going to have to be pretty long and have a hole through it for the fuel to flow. The auto meter part number is (2276).
