Hmm does anybody know where this goes?
« on: 15 August 2006, 11:55 »
Im coming towards the end of my rebuild and have started re attaching wires. I cant figure out however where this plug and 2 wires connect to. Im guessing that the wire with the round end is an earth and maybe the other wire connects to one of the temp sensors on the head (possibly the one at the back) but where on earth does the plug go? This is on my 16v by the way. If anyone has got pics of the sensors on the side of the head and also the one on the back showing which wires go where i would be very gratefull.

Its ok people i think ive sussed it. By the looks of things this plug is for the distributor. You can see from my 1st pic that the distributor is already connected though, this is becasue ive pluged the isv lead into it by mistake. An yes 1 wire is an earth and the other wire goes to one of the 4 temp sensors on the block. Probably the one on the back.
