    Default (E16SE) Coolant Wire??

    I've got a spare wire from my coolant temperature sender in the end of the head, its a blue one with a spade connector on the end. Where does it go?

    IIRC theres a sensor on the block (?) on E16's that it clips onto.

    that sensor is plugged in. but i cant see a spade that the blue wire with the spade goes onto?

    Also, I've got a black 2 pin plug too which I cant find the recipient for? It comes out from between injector 2 and 3.

    Noo, the spade connector clips onto a brass nipple (like on an SR inlet manifold).

    Black plug between injector loom could be EGR?

    Been about 3 years since I last had an E16 motor so its all abit vaug :S

    Ummm, Moike, the dizzy is usually kept on the opposite end of the block to the cam end (although i meant cam belt end but wasnt very clear )


    And iirc E16SE is GTE engine and therefore no egr

    Cant remember they do have EGR though, both of mine did as I removed them from the inlet manifold.
