I swapped heads on my 95 recently. I had a time limit on me to get this done, so when I had to go out of town unexpectedly, some work got dlegated to my stepdad. Well, he wasn't quite as anal about labeling all the different connections as I was. When the car didn't want to stay running after it was all together, I did some investigating and found this connection unplugged. For the life of me, I cannot find where it goes, please help me
It comes out of a "harness" w/ 2 other connections. 1 goes to the distributor, one to the coil, and then this connection.

Down, That connect goes down to your 02 sensors and your oil pressure sensor. That shouldn't have neccissarily kept the motor from running but it may. If you need some help and want me to look over the motor since I've done head swaps on my motor a bunch. I'm just over in leawood if you want me to check it out. Just get back to me if you want.

No wait. Looking at the picuture one more time. I can't quite tell because your finger is covering the sensor wire, but the big connector goes into the dizzy and the little nipple wire looking thing, gets pushed onto a threaded sensor on the front driver side of the lower intake. Its pretty small, probably sticks up .25-.5 inch.

I think its the one that plugs into the alternator or something right around there. I can go check on my lunch and let you know but Im pretty sure thats it.

That goes down to the oil pressure sending unit and another big plug right next to it (down near oil pan in front of engine drivers side). I'm not sure what the big plug down there does to be honest but that's where it should go. It kind of gets routed down around the PS pump bracket on the left side (near water pump and down around the crank pulley if I remember correctly.

He's absolutely right!! I checked at lunch and that is where it goes. Should run down the front of the engine near the front of the oil pan. I knew it looked familiar. I just swapped my battery cables sat and had a BITC* of a time getting it unhooked. Good luck

definitally goes down next to the timing cover and plugs into your oil press sender and o2 sensor harness.

Ah, the O2 sensor harness, that's what the big plug is for? makes sense.
