I have a 94 v6 car that i changed to a five speed carb 5.0 I am trying to hook up my air to fuel gauge but i cut off the plug on the o2 sensor as well as the harness for the o2 sensor because i didnt need it, but i forgot that i wanted it to hook up this gauge. My question is how do i hook the o2 sensor back up? Basically I have 4 wires from the sensor and 4 wires from the harness and have no idea which wires go to which because there are no plugs on either end. Thanks.

aren't they color coded?
 
If it's the same as the last O2 sensor I changed, it will have two black wires and two white wires. The white wires are for the heater, and polarity doesn't matter. The black wires are for the sensor, and I don't know if polarity matters or not. Maybe just hook it up and see if it throws a code....

Yes the sensor has two black and two white wires, but i still dont know which wires on the harness do what so i dont know how to connect them to the sensor
