Answer
find the gas tank and follow the lines comming off of it to the fuel filter. there should be a rubber hose on each side of it.undo the hose clamp on the botton side and install a fuel pressure valve(you can buy one at a parts store).after it is installed turn the key on(if it is fuel injected,you should here the pump running for about 10 seconds and shut off)if it has a carberator,you have to try to start the engine to get the pressure.the pressure should read bewteen 32-35 psi.after you find your pressure reading be sure to hook everything back up so your car will start again.
