The seal on a tire core may not be compatible with fuel or its additives. Any A/C shop or supply house has them and they are designed with higher pressure and chemical resistant seals, to work with refrigerants.

I have one new one left over from when I retro-fitted my A/C. I have 2 used ones that are still in good shape. Shoot me an email if you need it. I bought the shrader valve kit from NAPA for like $4.

I took the core out (which I can't find the bag I put it in) and installed a couple of fittings and the pressure sending unit. This is what it looked like back when I redid the top end.
(edit: It appears my webserver is down right now.)
It has a single black wire running back to the gauge in the a-pillar pod.
