I've just connected the idle stabilizer plug, the throttle position plug. And there is a large electrical connector that is part of the same location as those plugs. I don't recall it being plugged into anything. But I sure don't want to button this thing up and then realize I left something out. Am I missing something, or is that connector just not plugged into anything? It's like a ten pin or so.

MAF Connector Maybe??

By same location, I assume you mean it's part of the same wiring harness?
There's nothing directly under the intake that has a connector such as you describe.....

You've located the plug for the flux capacitor.

Argh! I knew I should have waited ten minutes before whining away.

Thanks.



And yes, "harness" was the word I was spazzing out on. Paging doctor Howard doctor Howard doctor Howard...

Could you be more specific as where or what it attaches to on the block? The crank pos sensor goes to the top of the bell housing.

Just re-read the above. If that is what I believe it is, and it wasn't plugged into anything, you're going to be really impressed when the MAF is actually on-line!

Does it look like 'D', here?

I made the mistake of swapping the throttle switch plug (B) for the crank position sensor plug (F) - once.

Gregg K

Thanks guys. Rob answered the question. And yes, it's D.

I'm finally getting this thing back together after three months! Engine mounts, oil pan, timing belt, intake...

I'm almost there.

And thus serendipitously invented the "Bill Ball WOT perpetual motion mod".


Good luck with the last few steps.

Firing it up the first time after all that work will be really satisfying.

Today a guy offered me a straight across trade with his brand new Cadillac STS. He used to own a 928 and he'd love my GT.

It will feel good to hear that grumbling engine again.

You probably forgot what that plug was because the MAF was still sitting on your workbench when you put the rest of the intake on!

Love getting all those hose clamps tight. I've got a system now and they're all positioned neatly for a 1/4 drive swivel socket on a 12" extension. I need a magnet to line things up under there but it works great!

Gregg K

Yep.

And it's been 30 years since I worked on a tight quarters vehicle. I was freaked out when this project began. Now I can see it's not that big a deal.

Wait until it runs, before you say that.
