Ok I'm bringing this back from the dead because I'm still not sure what sensors are on the back of the block.

There is an oil pressure switch (1 wire) I know for sure.

There is two other sensors I'm unsure of. The Service manual says there is an

Oil Temp Switch
ECT Switch
Knock Sensor (GSR)

one sensor I dont have a plug for. It has two plugs just like the oil pressure swtich...

I only threaded it like 3 turns for the picturs.




I'm having problems with my wiring harness! I'm using an OBD2 harness so I'm going to say these plugs arent going to be on the wiring harness? I know the oil pressure sensor is on the harness but I'm wondering about the Oil Temp. Sensor.

Does anyone have a Sensor/wire color documentation for wire harness tucking?
