Mass Air connector

I am installing a 99 2.5 in my 97. I cannot find the wire plug that plugs into the Mass Air Sensor after the air filter. Is it installed on the engine? Thanks for the help.

Thanks, I assume you mean the engine harness. I've looked all over the engine and also on the one I removed and can't seem to find it. Is it part of the bundle that goes to the ECU? or is it a separate harness that goes somewhere on the engine? Thanks again.

it is part of the harness on the engine. There is only one harness. it should be right at the end of the strand of injector wires by the a/c wires and at the back of the intake manifolds. I'll take a pic in a bit if it would help.

Hey you did it, thank you. I found the connector on the old harness. I finally cut the tubing off the new harness where the wires and connector should come out and found five cut wires. Someone cut the plug off and let the wires pull back into the bundle out of sight. Nice huh. Thanks again for the help, you got me looking in the right area. Tom
