Default Fuel rail schrader valve
I assume there's nothing fancy about the Schrader valve used to test the fuel pressure?

Something like Something like
this will do?

I would assume that the Xk8 has a Ford schrader valve. Don't know. I had a hard time finding a cheap gage that had adaptor for the Fords. So check before you buy.

I've just got the more elaborate Pittsburgh kit from Harbor Fright Tools and it has one connector that fits my X308.

You're right I looked in more detail and that cheap one I listed needs bodging to work. I'm irritated that the village garage doesn't have one.
