I have been working on replacing the intake manifold in my nb. so i have had to unplug basically everything at the front left (drivers side) of the engine. I have gone to plug everything back in and found two misc plugs that I cant for the life of me find where they go and there does not seem to be anything without a plug.

Below are photos of the connectors. they come out in the middle of the front of the engine out of a piece of conduit together. they point down and reach just below the sway bar.

they are not from any of the fans.

fyi i have removed the air con and they don't seem to match to those either.

I was thinking exactly the same as bartman. Only because I saw them just the other day in the Flyin Miata Turbo Install videos on YouTube! I have those same two connectors in my engine bay wrapped up and moved aside :mrgreen:
