What sensor is this??

[eLtrix]

Hey guys quick question, what sensor is this? It is a part of the throttle body but because I'm running a skunk2 70 TB theres no more plugs for it. The skunk2 only has 3 while the stock one has 4. Just trying to figure out whats the name of this sensor so i can either disable it or work around it???

Help is appreciated, cheers.

I believe this is the missing one from the stock oem one:


Any clue what it is?

I think it is the EVAP purge sensor but not 100% sure? Just guessing

Yeap EVAP.

Does the EVAP sensor have to be connected or what? Because my skunk2 tb doesn't have it at all. Is there a work around it or some kind of custom thing I have to do?

As I can just simply disable this sensor via KPRO but just want to make sure if this will affect my engine.

Its there for emissions. I would recommend retro fitting it on since its a street car, unless you dont mind the extra fuel vapor smell from the engine bay.

so it's for health as well as emissions....

Hmmm bugger... I don't have the sensor at all... Wonder how I'm going to run this

The evap sensor can be turned off in k pro. The evap line runs to the fuel tank pressure venting canister. It is possible to disconnect it there and should stop/ reduce the fuel smell, the canister is at the rear of the car.Some turbo guys use that wiring for boost by gear and just block off or remove the line.
