Please Help Locate Act Sensor Wiring

[Dubs Chops]

Hey all, I have an explorer intake. I think the previous owner just unplugged the ACT sensor instead of re-installing. I am going to megasquirt my car this weekend but I need to locate the pigtail for the ACT sensor. All of the diagrams I find show different color wires than I have on the lead I think is the ACT. Can anyone confirm for me what the green blk and black grey wire lead is for? My car is an 89 lx FYI

Here is a diagram showing the ACT

Use a Multimeter or DVM to check the continuity between the wire on the sensor and the pin on the computer. Adding a few feet of extra wire won't make more than 1Ω to 2Ω difference, not enough to invalidate your results. When you have continuity between the sensor wire and the computer, a good quality meter will usually beep. If you have the el cheapo version, you watch the meter scale for a reading less that 5Ω.

That connector in the pic is the one you want.
