You will need it, it may be used by the ECM for injection (air/gas mix)

Or....you could just use the one from your f22. Take a dremel and grind a screwdriver slot in to the 2 rivets that hold it on. Remove with a screwdriver and put it on the h22. I had to do it with mine, but I just got one from an old Civic hatch motor. You will have to set once you get everyting hooked back up though. I can't remember the voltages rigth no though. 0.5 shut throttle and 4.5 WOT I think....
