I'm just finishing up an engine swap in my '88 ford E-150 van. Oh what fun , Anyway I'm finally hooking wires back up but can't seem to find "the other end" plug for the trottle position sensor. I've got a grip on the sensor end but am struggling to find the other end. It's kind of tough to see under all that stuff now. Is it going to be part of the harness coming from outboard the engine or a connector on the harness laying on the engine itself? Jeesh....I wish I still had my first car......a '49 ford........sure was simple!

Well....I found the wire, got things hooked up and fired her up today. Runs smooth as a babys but! Don't want to tackle another van for a while!
