First, I'd like to say what's up to everyone. now, the question - we were wondering what the 2-pronged plug is on the back of the block that sits about 10 oclock from the oil filter. it's only a couple of inches away from the oil filter. Thanks.

 

......do you have a pic ?

 

thats for the flux capasitor. how else are you suposed to travel in time w/o one?

post a pic no clue what plug you refer to =P

 

that would be your knock sensor, try not to damage it.

 

No, it's the water temp sensor. Knock sensor would be at the 11-12 o clock position directly under the intake manifold and it only has one wiring going to it.

 

i agree it should be the water temp sensor.

 

more like a thermoswitch that turns the radiator fan(s) on

 

are you sure, he said nothing about how many wires it had, only that it was a two pronged plug. and maybe his location is off. i dunno, until i see it we are all just guessing here. hey is the plug a light green color?

 

No we are not guessing. It's the water temp/thermo switch for sure. The knock sensor does not have any "prongs". It's just one plastic sleeve. Plus, it's above the oil filter. The only sensor with 2 prongs on a B16a engine is the water temp/thermo switch.

 

yeah, it's not the knock sensor because the knock sensor is below it. I'll have a pic tomorrow just to clarify. Thanks guys.

 

Here's a pic of the knock sensor location. Thanks to Katman. http://tiiite.b16a.com/Specs/B18C_ks_1.jpg
