Yep that's just the cap for the shrader valve. Just take off the cap and unbolt the fitting. Be warned!!! when installing the new fitting for the nitrous use Teflon paste and do not over tighten the fitting or you will strip the rail easily.

Ok..well... i'm a little screwed here..

See, I took off that adapter, which was where the sensor went (sensor went above the adapter)

Put the sensor back on..and I had a fuel...spray...

So I put the adapter back on..and the same thing..

Isn't there susposed to be a bushing or something for this?

I may or may not have loosened up that schrader valve thing ...I'm not sure...

I thought you were installing a new fitting for the shrader valve?

Regardless I do not know if there is a gasket or something below it as I have never taken the fuel rail sensor off.

i was about to chime in when i saw this, yeah there are 2 o rings below it...
and i've overtightened the new nitrous fitting in there before lol had to drill and pull it out (it broke off in half inside there) and then had to put my old block in there.. but good thing Advance Auto parts can get that fitting first thing in the morning it's pretty cool actually lol..

glad you got it fixed
