Default Ultragauge fuel pressure reading

I saw the fuel pressure option in the instructions but must be missing it when I scroll through the selections when setting up a custom page. Am I missing something?

Great I'd like to hear about it too
For me on the initial hook up it would ask how big the tank is
But when I tried to set it up to read the correct fuel amount it would delay not sense/sensor found

There might not be a sensor for fuel pressure. Only thing I can think of.

Like many other data items UltraGauge can display a lot of things but only if the vehicle computer monitors and reports the data. That's the case here; the DII ECM doesn't have fuel pressure data available.

There is a gauge "estimator" at the UG web site. Enter the year, make and model and it spits out a list of available gauges.

Note: The estimator says UG can display fuel level on a DII. That's a bit false. It doesn't read fuel level directly. You tell it when the tank is filled or partially filled and UG displays a declining fuel level, and distance-to-empty, based on how much fuel is used. A bit crude, I think, but maybe better than nothing.

Understood. Realtime readings are what I find more helpful. I have coolant temp, intake temp, voltage, mph ( because of larger tires) and RPM. I was thinking about MAF and and O2's but not sure which ones out of the many MAF/02 selections are most helpful.

I have one page with Bank 1 and Bank 2 short and long term fuel trims in the four positions on the lower half of the page. Helpful for peace of mind and very helpful when things are going haywire with the O2s.
