Default 95 Engine bay picture Needed

Can anyone post a picture of a stock 95 engine bay for me. I have a connector on the left side that just dangles around and I'm thinking I'm missing a bracket. I should have moved my finger to see it better.

Thanks

I had the same question a few years ago. The response was that the extra plug was related to the wiring harness recall completed years ago and the extra plug was for '96+ cars. Sorry, I can't find the thread now, but I am pretty sure this is the same plug.

I have the same set-up on my 95. It seems to be an adapter to the harness for proper fitting. I hope this means that my 993 also had the engine harness recall.

A dealer can tell you if the recall has been done if you give them your VIN.

Chad-- Hopefully helpful, from 2013's "Help identifying loose plug near distributor" thread:

Zip strap it to the fuel rail on the LH side. These is where the dealers tied them up out of the way during the recall.

Thanks for the info guys....yes the car had the wire harness update done. Ok I guess that just hangs out...I'll secure it to something.

X50, thanks for the stock picture....I now see I need to gold zinc some of the brackets. Also my rubber fan boot does not seal right, I see yours is a different style...I'll get a new one. I'm into having my engine bay look new.
