Default what sensor is on drivers side in front of #1

While removing the exhaust I broke whatever that is. Not sure if I broke the sensor or harness.

Everyone seems to break this sensor when putting headers in (including myself)

Replace that asap.

well I think mine was really dried up and brittle cause the manifolds never hit it, I think it was just tension the connection and snapped... oh well, atleast the motor will have some much needed new parts..

Honestly, I wouldn't even start it until you get that fixed. Mine came unplugged once and the car started running really bad

No plans on starting the car anytime soon, im working on a lot of mods/replacements that everything is going to get looked over a few times before anything is attempted..

fluids are going to be replaced, all cables and connections are going to be checked and replaced if needed.. its been a few years since the car has been driven, only started so everything is going to be checked for sure.
