Coolant sensor wire plug lock

[Dattebayo]

Hey again! Where can you get one of those metal-wire electrical plug locker things like the one that keeps the coolant temp sensor plug attached to the sensor receptacle? Mine sprung off into the great unknown a minute ago and into a field where I had to change the damn thing. If you say "the junkyard", I'm going to throw a fit.

have you tried an auto recycling establishment?

Hey, You could pull one off of your knock sensor or EGR solenoid plug I think! or you could get MacGyver on it and use the wire from a twisty tie off of a loaf of bread. A paper clip will not have the spring to it I'd think. You already know where to get one... throw your fit and go get it! Oh, Wiring Specialties probably has them also. But I'd just use wire from a twisty tie and call it good. Besides, untwisting that might be easier to remove next time.

I grabbed all the ones off my old 240 before scrapping it. I might have one...
