Default am I blind?

1992 vert, stock engine, auto, 53k. Just bought a fuel pressure tester because I smell gas when trying to start the engine, It tries to start but acts like it's flooded. I have looked all over but I can't find the valve to hook the tester up and can't find it in the manual. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Bill

It's on the passenger side under the fuel injector cover, on the underside of the rail. You need an angled fitting to attach to it.

no wonder I didn't see it, where do you get an angled adaptor?

Don't tell anyone, but I use an extra R12 A/C charge hose that has an angled fitting.
