How do you and where to check the fuel pressure for a 2.4 engine?

It depends entirely on the year, make and model on how and where you can check fuel pressure. In order to officially and properly check the fuel pressure you will need a fuel pressure gauge and a set of adapters and fittings that typically come in a relatively expensive kit.
Most GM, Ford and Chrysler engines will have a Schrader valve located on the pressure side of the fuel line, usually near the fuel rail that houses the injectors. If the fuel line has one of these valves then you can screw on a fitting that attaches to a fuel pressure gauge, crank the engine and see the fuel pressure. If the vehicle does not have one of these valves then a specific, special fitting that comes with part of the fuel pressure tester kit needs to be installed in line on the pressure side of the fuel lines somewhere where the line can be disconnected.

Where is the fuel pressure test fitting for 1997 Z 24 cavalier?
Ain't got one if it's a 2.4L. Go to the salvage yard and cut one from an old car. (a couple inches on each side of the "schrader" valve that your talking about. And find one that has a cap on it. Then break out the tubing cutter again and cut that same lenght out of the larger metal fuel line that runs across the top of your engine and insert the Schrader , connected with 2 rubber tubes and 4 small hose clamps. So... in short, you must build it yourself and then install it yourself. But the good thing is ,Now, you can check the pressure anytime you want to in the future. There are 5 of these Z cars in this family. I done 2 out of 5 with this set-up (with one of those now has interior fuel pressure gauge and I can check it at the blink of an eye.
