try looking at ur wiring u probably didnt hook it up. or see if there is one on ur old intake manifold and if there is then u didnt hook it up and it is there somewhere. or just go to a junkyard and pull 1 off a civic just to cover up the hole..

well last night i was looking around and i didnt have a cable or harness like that
even on my old mani there is nothing like that

well even if i did go and get one from a junk yard i have no clue on were it would harness to

find one off an older accord/civic like 88-91 take a screw driver and remove the 2 bolts. then just screw it in the new one. u dont need to hook up the wires if ur old one didnt have it.

ok i guess that would be a good way to seal it

some guy from skunk told me to JDmweld it some type of liquid metal would be a good way to seal it shut??

what you think about that

i think you should find the sensor on your wiring harness and plug it in.. you should have it.. i had it on my d15b.. otherwise get like some gasket maker stuff or JBweld and plug it..

well the skunk guy told me i can relocate it but if its already on the CAI setup so not worth it

hey dreams can you post a pic of ur d15b setup

i might just put a small screw see if it runs tomorrow since i have to take it to work no choice
