I've started stripping the engine out of my donor car and the engine loom has been fairly straightforward to disconnect. I'm planning on using the loom tables to attach a C101 connector.

However, I've noticed that there is a plug that attaches to a sensor on top of the throttle body which is not connected to the main engine loom. It comes directly out of the car side of the E36 loom. What do I need to do with this?

It's the one shown connected in the picture below.

The other thing i've noticed is that I had to remove two cables from the throttle body. The lower one looks like the throttle cable. What does the other smaller one do? Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of it so let me know if that doesn't make sense.

Thanks

Ah great, that makes sense. So basically another thing which is not needed and can be deleted!

Did you get your clutch situation sorted?

Thanks 8)
