For what it is worth I needed a new plug for my 99 xk8 crank sensor. After a week of trying to find one I went to Advance Auto and to my surprise they found the plug listed in the computer and I had it the next day.

Found and bought the tps coupler on ebay$12 yea!!
found the VVT couplers at auto parts at $40 (seems way way to much $$$)
i think I have a source at my shop on the new 4 stroke race bikes. They all use denso coil packs and I think I have a cheaper source. I’ll post my findings this week if I can find!

Looks to be very useful. Wells Mfg. also has a assortment

Rockauto has a number of connectors/pigtails as well, sometimes a variety more extended than expected...

Found and ordered coupler off the part number you provided of eBay and turns out to be the tps on the passenger side of the throttle body. I really need the one on the driver side l/h side of throttle Body. This one has has pins that are smaller and casing is a little different and won’t work on that side. Any ideas out there. Thanks in advance!

The accelerator pedal position sensor is the piece that I need for the l/h side , 4 pin connector. My casing is gone so the rubber seal is holding it in place.
