my 75 2.0 wiring harness has this connector on the passenger side rear engine compartment looking for something to attach it too. The wire color (white) makes me think it is a ground, but the connector on the end has me confused. See picture.

I also need to connect three spade connectors to a ground connector on the motor. I seem to have lost the three spade connector that was mounted on the motor. I suppose I can make something, but wondering if anyone out there knew where I could get one.

Thanks - Merry Christmas to all Attached Image

That connects to cylinder head temp sensor. Somebody may have spare case ground.

Yes. That is one of the most critical sensors on D-jet (or L-jet for that matter). Car will flood almost immediately without that connected properly to a functioning CHT.

It's probably just the lighting of the pic, but I can't see the CHT. There should be a hole in the tin sort of in between the runners. The CHT is threaded (carefully) into the head under there with the wire lead coming out of the hole and attaching to the at connector.

There is a black wire in the photo laying on the engine tin between the intake runners with a female connector. That may be your CHT.

The multiple ground point is a washer with three tabs on it. Not hard to cut out of sheet metal if you have a few tools and some creativity.
