yep, i'm going to get that one and slap it in. It's really really old and probably useless. I'm going to pull the o2 connector before I drive home from work today and see how it runs that way. The PO removed the cat so no worries damaging it.

Note that you can re-use the rubber grommet that goes through the engine tin; if you need to.
A couple of careful slices with a razor blade will enable you to re-install the old grommet on the new wires in the event that you don't get one on the replacement part.

just wanted to add closure on my issue. I Replaced spark plugs (they were 20k and 8 yrs old) and the rough running at speeds over 40 mph didn't clear up. Water spray test: negative. Found out one of my dizzy cap plugs wasn't fully seated
Meh! Oh well, cheap fix in the end. Still have to replace my o2 sensor soon though. It's probably seen all 50k miles on this shell.
