Alternator pigtail

Need some help guys (and a few gals). Not too long ago someone posted a link here to a website with some Ford pigtails. They had an alternator pigtail for my SD for $3.50.

Turns out I now need that pigtail and I can't remember what thread the link was in, can't remember the name of the site, can't remember who posted it, forgot to bookmark it, can't find it in a search.....

Anyone know which site I'm referring to, or have I finally just lost it?

I don't know about the website, but I have a complete SD engine harness and I think the alternator pigtail is fine, If I could help let me know.

Thanks for the offer, but if it's your spare harness I don't want to steal a connector that you might need in the future, especially since we're not talking about much money here. Hard to believe the parts store wants $30 for this.

I know about this one and Source products. Maybe my mind has just finally gone. I would have swore I saw a site that had the 2 wire plug I needed for $3.50

Mine looks like this except it's black and I couldn't tell you what color the wires are.



Sorry, but I don't remember what the OBS plug looks like

Mine's only got 2 wires with the center pin blank. I'm going to find some time to stare around under my hood and see if there are any other pigtails I might need to order. I think the alternator plug is acting up because the push clip part is hard to operate, and after messing with it for a few seconds you tend (or at least I do) to get pissed and just grab the wires and yank while trying to push down on the little tab.

If there are other pigtails I decide want, I'll just order them at once to save on shipping. If I decide I want your pigtail, I'll let you know Ian. Thanks for the offer.

Everyone be sure and send Ian reps for me.
