Hi all
Can anyone help me source a new Bosch connector?
I have a 1986 230TE, recently the wire broke off the K Jetronic temperature sensor probe connector screwed into the head. That seemed to put the car onto full choke and it wouldn't run when warm. Anyhow, I found the offending wire, and resoldered it on. But the connector now is very brittle (20 years old!) and not water or heat proof. I have put silicone on it but I'd like to replace it. The temp sensor is the fuel injection one, single green/red trace wire. Can anyone help me find a new connector complete? I guess it's a Bosch part, it's black plastic, with a ribbed surface, and a black sealing grommit around the top. Except mine is now just the metal inner part!
Thanks all
