This should help.....



The plug you have goes onto the temp sensor for coolant temp (grey plug).

Chances are then the temp sensor/bracket is missing from your engine. It should be located/bolted to the same location as the auxillary air valve under the intake manifold.

the last one is the ignition retard, it's for when running on poor quality fuel, it should be left unconnected.
