What year B16 and do you have an OBD1 PR3 ecu?

The knock sensor is near the cylinder head. So it's the top one and a 1 wire sensor.

As for the 2 plugs you are holding. one is for TPS (behind the throttle body) and the other is the MAP sensor (on top of the throttle body). these often get mixed up.

The MAP wire sensor has a white, gr/blue (or grn/wht), and yel/grn (or yel/red) wires.

and the TPS wire plug has a grn/wht, red/blue, and yel/wht wire.

HTH.

well depending on what car this is, my friends 93 dx hatch has 2 plugs leftover hanging down liek that form his b16 swap and they the 2 plugs l;ook just like the map and tps plugs. his car runs fine with no codes, he said something about plugs leftoever from his old harness or something but they are their nonetheless just liek yours.

The green plug is the engine temp sensor which is that style on the OBD0 motors. The sensor was relocated to the thermostat on 92+ motors as a normal 2 prong sensor.
