Is this the original engine? I have an '89 engine in my '88 Grand Caravan, and the '89 is missing the threaded hole for the intake air temperature sensor. The '89 vehicle would be missing that plug.

What's the recent history that involved disconnecting the sensor?

Bought a used truck, run fine, and I never unplug that connector. Also only time I work around that plug is when I change my ignition coil. I try to search for it, its no where to be found.

Well, I found it on the wiring diagram. The wire colors are dark blue / dark green and dark blue / light green. The first one is the sensor ground and is common to a lot of sensors. The second one goes to pin 30 of the Engine Computer. That plug has to be there somewhere unless it was cut off. Sometimes plugs fit on more than one thing, so check if those wire colors are connected to something else nearby.

The wiring connector should be there sticking out of the main engine wiring loom, here are the color of the wires going to the intake air temperature sensor.

I just recently bought the truck listed above 1500. I noticed the sensor air intake manifold sensor is plugged into the manifold, but there is no connector to be found. Where would I find the wires to reconnect it or a connector?
