Ok, I know this is going to be hard to do it without pictures, but my camera is broken. I'll try and describe it as best as possible.
I was trying to take off the bolt that holds the dipstick on and ended up snapping off an electrical connector in the process. The connector is located right above the oil filter, just inside of the distributor. At first I thought it was attached to the distributor, but upon closer look, it connects directly into the engine block. The wires lead back towards the firewall approx. 6" and go into a larger wire loom in the wiring harness.
I sheared off the connector directly where it attaches to the engine block. It looks like there is a metal piece on the block that is part of the connection that can be unscrewed and replaced, but I haven't tried it yet. I just want to know what it is before I make things worse than they are! I will try to get some pics ASAP. If anyone has any idea what I'm talking about, I'd appreciate it!
