Title: Need Help Identifying this Plug
Post by: cvdenson on July 24, 2010, 04:30:56 PM
Hey all,
After months of sitting in my driveway, I finally got around to installing a rebuilt TBI 2.5L in my '89 YJ.  I am at a loss for where this plug goes.  I have looked everywhere.  It comes off of the engine harness on the driver's side.  I appreciate any help!  THANKS!

Thanks Torch!  I never had power steering, wish I did.  I guess I'll just have to ziptie it out of the way.

it is meant to increase the idle when you're at the end of the travel on the steering knuckle - i tested it and it increases the rpm by about 200 under no load. I have the same problem although i broke it myself when i got my hand in there doing some work - it's nice to have it functioning properly but i never had my Jeep stalling just the idle goes down and shakes a bit more than usual when you have the wheels turned all the way.
