86 oxygen sensor location

i have searched the forum and can't find the location for the plug in the engine compartment for the end of the oxygen sensor. here is the picture for the direct replacement for my car. i have a 86 targa 3.2 the existing sensor plug was not plugged in, so i'm confused. i know its on the left side near the fuel filter. any help would be appreciated

Have a look for the plug under the fuel filter located on the driver's side engine compartment.

Good luck,

Gerry

thanks for the picture Gerry. i'll pull the blower duct off tomorrow to give it another go. the car seems to run good without it plugged in. interested to see the difference with it connected properly. hopefully even better i presume. all the best, robert

You should have access without pulling blower duct.
