Need Help Identifying Conectors
I need some help identifying the two connectors pictured below, but first the history on the car as I know it. PO was a friend who needed $ and offered it to me. The car is an 89 RS Vert with a 305 TBI. 98,xxx on the clock that appears to be about correct. The car is for my daughter who turns 16 in March. The car is ready for paint, needs a new top, weather stripping and I am changing the color of the interior from tan to black.
Back to the point of the post... PO told me that he had the fans straight wired to run all the time (with key in run) because he had issues with it running hot. He had added a pusher fan in front of the condenser. Luckily he had straight wired the OEM fan by unplugging the connector from the relay and jumpering it out. I removed the jumper and "tested" the relay by plugging the connector in and turning on the A/C. The fan came on as expected. The pusher fan was wired to one of the wires going to one of the connectors in question (hot in run). I have since wired the pusher fan to a Hayden controller and it at least works when I turn on the A/C. I haven't run the engine enough for it to warm up to check that part of the equation but I am pretty sure it will be OK. I am thinking that the connectors in question both go to the thermostat housing since they are the correct length and there are currently two pipe plugs in the threaded holes in the housing. I am going stock with this build, my daughter doesn't want a car that looks like it belongs to a boy, and would like to get the proper sensors/senders to make it OEM correct. I usually like my stuff to be anything but OEM but you know how persuasive daddy's little girl can be.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
