hahah its for the flux capacitor!!:rofl: its above the tranny. thats why your car will be so damn fast!

on a serious note some cars have 4 wire o2 sensors some 3,2 even 1. im sure it just came out of the harness but i dont know fox bodys that well. I have no idea how ford did theres. find out what kind of o2 sensor you need and then youll be able to tell if its for the o2.

For the left side? Its probably for the low oil sender.

foxes have 3 wire o2's...and there is nowhere on the plug for it to go in...and the other plug only has 3 wires going to it

yeah i think it is for the driver side and i think that may be it....im not using a low oil sender tho i just pluged the pan where the sender would go.

so if thats it i guess its nothing to worry about

i think wick is right though i know the low oil sensor was in that harness, and it has a weird end on it that you have to pull a clip out of the oil pan to get it out

:goodidea: Mike is not in use either. Do yourself a favor and run them over the top of the bell housing. It cleans up some more of the engine bay.

We did an engine swap on a cousins fox and changed it to mass air.When we pulled the old engine I noticed that wire on his harness too never found out where it went
