I can supply them, or alternatively put you onto a chap that does racing looms for a business, he is happy to supply them but don't know if he will mail order.
I have just done a load of mine and they were from memory about Ł3/4 each for two way, about Ł5/6 for four way can't remember the others.
You could also look on POLEVOLT website as they do them as well just a little dearer but still not bad.

I was guna say go to the scrappy. If you look on a MFI 3i engine you'll find a green plug on the over run shut off valve

What years your car again cos the late cars have the later type plugs though

Hmmmmm, the knock sensor ones do tend to break the wires

You may find a 3i with the quick release plugs but they must be few and far between if any have them, as they went over to EFI obviously.

You could try a Bosch/Lucas agent?

Ive got a green plug somewhere im sure, and if not i can get you one easy enough.

You'll never make it look proper with a second hand plug though thinking about it, screened cable on the knock sensor

You can buy the terminals seperatly, vehicle wiring products sell all the parts seperatly, so why not just replace the terminals and still use the original outer plastic connector?? Ive rebuilt the cossie loom recently, replaced all connectors and added a few new earths and supplies in there whilst I was at it...handy for me tho as Vehicle Wiring products is only in the next town
