Remove the schroder (spelling??) valve pressure relief fitting on the back of the fuel rail, near the Regulator; then put in a brass Female / Female adaptor, then screw in your male end - problem solved!

I used these two:
EAR-998604ERL -4an male to 1/8" female 90 degree
EAR-915104ERL -4an female to -4an female
I found I had no where enough room to install the sending unit straight up, even at 90 degrees it barely misses the cowl in my case. Maybe sending units have gotten smaller over the years as I'm using a older model Autometer with the black box.
