Once again I'm back for help, So driving home two weeks ago my car turned off and long story short i came to the conclusion that is was my distributor, ordered a new one (ebay, yea i know while trial and error i said f it) and when i went to connect it I noticed that the previous owner cut and jumped the knock sensor wire (blue and white) to the dizzy by cutting and electrical taping it up. while trying to do it the right way i noticed that the female terminal inside the plug was damaged (maybe why they cut and jumped), so after getting it out i tried grabing a terminal from an old radio harness to no aval, the terminal wont go inside the plug (car side)
Now i do not wanna do what the previous owner did and jump the wire and cut into my new dizzy, what are my other options?
thanks in advance

Re: 99 EM1 Distributor harness (car side repair) Help
After some brainstorming the only options i can think of are:
A.Get a whole new plug end from a scrap yard, and solder and heat-shrink it onto your harness. Which is a questionable improvement, being as it creates more points for failure than before.
B.Tap into the side of the knock sensor wire on the dizzy and have a slide on terminal that goes around the plug, but can still be unplugged.
C. Or if your feeling adventurous just replace the whole harness
