Hmmm, I wonder why this one I have didn't work? Its the same connector, mabey its a 3 bar? Or possibly a one bar? It looks so close to the same you have to look close to notice any size difference.

Pits called open loop, when one of the map,maf, o2 sensors is wacky, the computer goes into open loop and uses a predetermined afr to run.
