Fuel related No Start

Parked on an incline, nose down, car would not run, sputter and stall.
Replaced the filter and fuel pressure regulator, better but not running well enough to drive.
The old fuel filter had some debris, I would like to check the fuel pressure.
My FP gauge is 1/4 inch pipe thread, the fuel pressure regulator is not.
Has anyone made an adapter or know a source for the fitting, preferably with a hose barb on the end.
Also thought about blowing some air back into the tank? practical? Any info appreciated.
Thanks, CK

You should be able to hear the fuel pump for a few seconds when you turn the ignition on. If you can't hear it, then check the fuel pump relay and put a DVM meter on the pump's electrical terminals to ensure it is getting power.
If it is getting power then pump could be bad or line blockage. Start with filter and then progress downstream. See if you can move the gauge to the inlet side of FPR.
Gotta luv jags, park nose down and the puppy won't start

Update no fuel pressure, pumps but I can stop it with my thumb.
Rigged a FP gauge and tried it both ends of the fuel rail and in plae of the fuel filter. Not enough pressure to read, tested gauge works fine. Can blow back lines to tank.
Next step, pull fuel pump, any related posts that anyone can recommend?
