Where does this connector go?
I have just put the engine back in the car after a recent rebuild last week. I cannot find out where this connector goes. Anyone know? I have looked all around, but maybe I missed something?

thanks,

Looks like your WBO2 sensor connector

What is the WBO2 sensor? Something to do with the fuel? Where does it attach to off the wiring harness?

Thanks,

It attaches to the front 02 sensor that is likely in your exhaust manifold

If it isn't installed...the sensor goes from the front manifold hole and the plug attaches to you empty plug in the picture

Hard to see the hole (and almost impossible to fit with the engine in) on top of the cast header, just ahead of the three-bolt exhaust flange.

Kinda weird, that wire is only about 6 inches long. Reaches to the oil filter. That's it. I can't see it reaching to the header
