What's that hole ???????
I got a TPI set up off of an 89' IROC. And i think i am missing something. There is a threaded hole on the pleneum on the drivers side in between the back two runners. At first i thought this might be the cold start injector but found nothing on the fuel rail to back this up. Then i read in 89' they eliminated the cold start injector. I am guessing there is a tube missing that goes from that hole to maybe the exhaust manifold to measure exhaust tempiture ????? I have no way of knowing since i have nothing to look off of. Does this sound correct or am i going way off on a limb here??????

i believe that your are correct in assuming the CST. it's just an 88' and prior drivers side runner.

The hole in the side of plenum goes to brake booster. Hole underneath is for MAT.

maybe if i woulda read better. PLENUM!! if its on the side its the brake booster but if its underneath then it could be the air temperature sensor.
