Your 1.9 set up does not have the sensor clip mentioned. Your sensors are
directly threaded into the housing. The only clip is for the electrical
connector. It is not available separately. You need to replace the
connector. Except for color and clip style, it is the same as the fuel
injector connectors.

Hi,
I sent this to someone else - but is this at the front of the engine
under the belt?

This was conversion from a 1.9 to a 2.1.
I only say that because as I am trouble shooting the issue (which I
mentioned in another post) I guess I have an 02 sensor for a 1.9 as the
injectors are the 1.9 injectors?
If this doesn't work (with it running rich after it is hot...I'll replace
the O2 sensor.
Thanks,
Andree
