This item did not fit on the fuel rail of my 2000 Dakota r/t, if my memory serves me correctly.
Although I can't be certain, it fits other Fords from the same era, so it's a strong possibility.

One star for properly adapting an electric fuel gauge sender to the fuel rail on my 1986 Bronco 302's fuel rail. Four stars deducted for the senders snapping in half when swapped out. This is made of extremely low-cost pot metal. Get a brass one as a favor to yourself. Now I have to go out and buy an extractor set in order to get rid of the remaining chunk of this shoddy adapter.
The markup on this is insane (hence the three stars) and it didn't fit my 2000 Jeep Cherokee.
It was an excellent part that did exactly what it was supposed to do. (Not "pot metal," as one person claimed. ) Teflon tape and npt don't need 100lbs of torque to seal, so eat less wheaties.
My autometer fuel pressure sender fit perfectly into my fox body mustang's Schrader valve.
For mounting a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail of my 1989 Ford Mustang, this is exactly what I needed. It seals up nicely with a dab of teflon paste.
Fits perfectly on Ford EFI fuel rails, allowing you to mount a fuel pressure gauge or connect to your nitrous system. The fact that Amazon Prime members get free two-day shipping is the cherry on top.
