Hello all:

What I do, is attach one side of a dwell meter to the battery ground and
the other side has to have a pin attachment that you stick into that little
connector that you are speaking of. Set it for 4C and 80 measure. You
should get a reading of about 40 with the car warmed up. You will notice a
rapid fluctuation that should swing no more than 3 lines on the meter. This
is just the O2 making its ongoing adjustments. BTW, if you don't get a
reading from one hole on that connector, try the other hole. Only one hole
is used in this method. I believe it is the blue one.

Good luck,
Paul Hanley
