Two Schrader Valves?

In diagnosing my car, I check pressure here:



Then I take a look at the regulator, wtf?



Pressure at the valve behind the alternator was low, so im pretty sure the pump is weak, but the other valve showed 0.

Is that something that isnt fuel related? Am I losing my mind, I dont remember my Mustangs having two valves?

I think I'd pull the fuel rail and take some more shots.I'd like to see  underneath the FPR.

Possibly...is the speedo in KPH?  Also, im not sure about T-birds/Cougars but i know stangs (94-04 puppiesanese export) had fender mounted turn signals, flared wheel arches, and an amber section in the taillights that the US cars didnt have.

Digital gauges, so you can switch back and forth, i think that is standard?

I havent noticed anything else, other than the stuff I put in the other thread, but I havent really seen one of these since I sold my last one in about 1995.
