Default One Plug left, where does it go?

I finished wiring up my zc except for one final plug... on the back of the motor, there are a few let me describe them...

1. Two long prongs, plug into a rubber housing with the female parts for the two prongs... *click*

2. One long prong, same as ones mentioned earlier, plug into a smaller rubber housing with one female part... *click*

3. the male end of a connection that has two room for two male pins... WHERE o WHERE does this lil piece go?

If you installed into a 90-91 chassis...then no where..

I had this same thing...let me see if I can remember this correctly..

Look at the sensors on your firewall... engine side..

Notice there is a 4 pin connecter goin to it..

On a 88-89 there would be a 2 pin connecter...

I think the ZC intake is a 88-89 design...and so your missing two pins some were..

Something like that... Understand?

Cause I don't anymore..

Point of the story..your car will be fine...run it with that plug open..

haha ok i think?

the chassis is a 91... and i got a response from somebody else that said to let it hang too... so, that's what I am going to do!

unless someone else has some other input?

What was the plug for though? I noticed it when I did my MPFI. Never really looked into what it was for

it does look like the plug that goes into the crank angle sensor, but i already rewired all that so it is definitely not that...

thanks for all the feedback Honda-tech saves the day again YAY

oh about the crank sensor wires... I may have them mixed up... when looking down at the dizzy from the front of the car, you should see the green clip... what wire is on the left side of this clip? is it the blue with yellow stripe, or is it just the blue?

Fast idle solenoid on Sis. No use on other motors, uneeded. Black/Yellow and I think Blue wires. On DX it is Bl/Yellow and orange but fulfills a different purpose on the DX motor. Alot of later designs have a mechanical solenoid that operates via water temp to adjust cold idle. Thats all from memory so correct me if I am wrong anywhere.
