Hello,
I have to connect an oil pressure gauge to the nozzle port (or nozzle) of a Beckett oil burner. The nozzle is a 3/16" tube with a flare fitting at both ends. The gauge has a 1/4" hose with flare fitting.
The gauge came with many adapters but none seem to fit this situation. Which adapter do I need?

Also, how are these flares named, by the size of the hose they are connected to or the size of the nut.
Thanks,
Richard
