Default converting 4 wire O2 to 2 wire

Just put in a Y8 harness to finish my Y8 conversion. I didn't plan on the harness have a 2 wire O2 sensor for the secondary O2. Wich wires are the ones that need hooked up. I guess I'll just take the 4 pin connectore off the old harness and leave 2 pins empty. This is on a 96 Y8 harness.

ok maybe I've got something mixed up. What I thought was the secondary o2 sensor maybe it's not. It's a connector that looks just like the one going to the Idle Speed Control and is Y'd off the wiring harness under the intake manifold. I don't see any other connectors that could be for an oxygen sensor. The 96-98 does use a 4 wire secondary according to the manual.

that's not good I don't see anything that could be the secondary o2. I see in the parts list that there should be an extension wire between the o2 and the wiring harness is that correct?

im not too sure on the fine details with the eks but im pretty sure that unless its a cx or an hx then all the o2 sensors are 4 wire.

ok looks like the connector I thought must be it is to the PS rack pressure sensor, which of course I don't have. So I still need to find the O2 wiring. I'll tear it apart tomorrow I guess.
