So I get under the car and there's no extra fitting where the stock sender unit is. So what fitting do I need to use to make my autometer gauge work? The autometer gauge is electrical. I would like the stock gauge to work as well. Pictures would help greatly! Thanks..
I didn't have the extra plug in mine either. Sorry I don't have any pics, but I ended up getting a brass "Y" block and a male/male fitting from lowes to make both guages work.

I was thinking of using an elbow to attach to the filter housing itself. Then attach the Y fitting to that elbow, and each sending unit could go on the Y fitting. Is that how yours is set up? I don't know what male/male fitting your talking about.
Yeah, just get a 1/4" brass T fitting from Lowes/Home Depot, a 1/4" nipple, and some teflon tape. Remove the stock sending unit. Screw the 1/4" nipple in to where the stock sender came out of. Screw the T fitting on to that. Screw the stock sender in to one end, then screw your aftermarket sender in to the other end. Use teflon tape on all the fittings. Easy.

Just a T fitting alone would not fit because there is very little space. But I did figure it out. I ended up using an elbow with a T fitting. I think I'll do a write up .
I had the same issue installing the blower. I tried to do a T to a Y to fit THREE (line to the blower, adapter for stock guage and adapter for autometer guage).
To make a long story short, after about 2 hours of tryinig every combo, every twist and turn, we just said "F THIS" and just kept the stock guages unplugged. LOL!
