What is this for? It is not connected to anything.

Thanks again.

I'm replacing the Engine Harness and FI with the ones that Jeff B. makes. The new ones are great!!
Check out http://www.my914.net/Porsche/my914/wires_and_vacs/
look at the Engine harness directory. You may not be able to see in the pics but almost every wire has cracks in it. Wires with out ends. Etc.

Oil temp, that is the famous taco plate under that sludge pile.

Whats wrong with that picture? Is that plastic flap hanging down off the bulkhead that promotes engine compartment air flow on backwards? DH

I think the flap is right.

That explains why the temp guage was not reading anything. LOL

Guess I should have sprayed water under the car first. I promise I was just going to replaces the FI and Engine harness then drive it and clean it. honest.

I think I sent you a new oil temp wire David...

It connects to the main body wiring harness under under the battery at the upper side of the engine tin. Green/black striped wire.

Get it steam cleaned...it will be like a new car under there...

ha!! I was looking at a wire under the battery tray that does not have an end crimped on it.
So that's the other end.

Thx

Threr are two places in San Jose, just look in the yellow pages under....steam cleaning....

Lots of mechanics use them for their customers cars and they usually work Saturdays.

If you slect a Saturday, do it after the next 9:14 Breakfast? Betcha Rich B can turn you on to one in Redwood City.
