well if its down by knock sensor its crank sensor plug good luck getting that on if car is back together .

The first plug i connect  when putting engine back in is the crank sensor its a bitch to get to if you have intake fitted .

I got it! The single most fcuking infuriating thing was the 5 hours spent trying to fish a nut out of the alternator where it had decided to hide. Engine now in. Car a step closer to being a car! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I dropped a nut into the heater fan housing when I had the hose removed. Got it out eventually with my one of my kids Telly Tubby fridge magnet tied onto a piece of string. I tried them all but Tinky Winky was the winner.
