Almost done rebuild and then I found this...

So, I thought I was going to get to start my car this past weekend after an extremely long rebuild when I stumbled across this connection I somehow missed. It is a four pin connector (actually five but one of the pins is plastic/rubber) and I believe it should have been routed on the engine side. I have the engine and transmission mounted so I'm hoping someone can tell me an easy way to get it to where it needs to go.

Thanks,
Jason

you might be able to slip it between the engine tin and the rubber, if not pull the motor mount bolts and lower the engine a little bit.

Look in the back corner sort of near the engine mount, but further back.

Yup, been there done that. Next drop you (and I) will remember to wire it up so it's on the right side of the sealing rubber with the engine in postion. As mentioned, you can sneak it past the rubber if you drop the motor a couple of inches. Live and learn eh!
