Can Anyone help? Sensor problem
K, digging into my engine bay to put on my new procharger bracket and find the following:
Unhooked sensor just chillin'. This is on the front of the block, passenger side. I BELIEVE it may be the dash coolant sensor, though I understand there are two knock sensors on the corvette LT motors and perhaps this is one of them?
Look past the opti the silver colored base and you will see the base of the sensor.
This is the wire coming from the sensor. It is a pigtail with Red and Green
This is the lone FAST wire that is not connected to anything. The label has fallen off and I cannot distinguish what is supposed to go to. Please hold the "Way to take a picture AFTER it was disconnected" comments
So what is the sensor in reality, and what should that wire be connected too?

If you have a 96 LT1 car, it appears to me that the sensor you see is the crank sensor. If it is located at the bottom of the timing cover which it appears that it is, then it is the crank position sensor.
