fuel pump relay on a 84 t/a??

ok.this is a really stupid ?
i am in the middle of my header install. i have my 3 wire heated o2 sensor. i have read that installing it to the fpr is the best place.(is that true?)

problem is i don't know where its at. i have 2 relays on the driver side of my t/a. 1 is down by the evap cannister the other is on the fire wall just under the actuator to open the door in my hood scoop.
any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks.jay.

No, that's not the best place to tie it in. You want something that is powered while the engine is warming up, and open when warmed up.

That's the switch for the electric radiator fan.

It's actually a switch, not a sensor.

I can find a connector for the knock sensor, which is similar, but not for that switch. If I come across something, I'll let you know.
