i dont remember which one that is but your oil cooler gasket is failing... have to replace that whole aluminum unit above the filter since they dont make just a gasket. also will need coolant when you replace.

 

Thanks for pointing that out, I didn't know there was a gasket in there. How hard could it be to make my own gasket...

I was able to take the connector apart. Now I just need to replace that broken wire with a longer one and reconnect everything.

 

Alright, that wasn't so bad. This is the connector in component form. The trick is to keep the metal small enough to fit back in.

I don't have electronic soldering tools, but I did put some copper plumbing in this spring. Here is my setup. I also have some flux. As you can see, I broke part of the connector, but I was still able to salvage the remainder and solder the wire in place.

Time to bodge the wires. Somehow the gap was the perfect size for my crimpers. I shrink wrapped the crimp and used the leftover plastic sheathing from the old crankshaft sensor.

In theory the car should run better now that the mystery sensor is reconnected. +1hp.

 

the oil cooler gasket is a thick rubber squared o-ring like a cylinder with notches in it. who knows what kind of junk is inside
