You can get a quick connect one with male and female quick release couplings that fits after the unloader.

And there's one's that you can fit on the opposite end of your pump head to the unloader, where at the moment you will have a blanking plug.

You can also get a 2 in one temperature and pressure gauge like this

Harrier hydraulics on eBay are the cheapest about £7

buy one that is rated double the psi that you use. Fit it on the opisite side of the pump to where your high pressure fitting is or fit a T junction before or after your uploader.

You need a glycerin filled guage as these are best suited to the vibrations and pressure fluctuations of a washer
