If you're talking about this connector, I figured it for a ground wire for the efi system. I put it on the bolt right above where the canister bolts to the intake.

Does anybody know what this connector is called, because when I try to start my vehicle the motor does not turn over, so I am guessing that it has something to do with this connector? please help!
thank you

its a ground wire...and yes if not properly grounded it can keep your engine from starting

make sure that your engine is grounded to the frame, then to the body, and that the battery ground is connected to the body...

i had written with a paint marker on the throttle body where it bolts on to the intake, by one bolt i marked the letter g for a ground but i smudged the marking does this seem like a likely place to be and yes i did check my other ground connections thank you very much for your reply.

it bolts to the stud on the bottom of the intake runner AFTER you install the upper plenum.

When I bought a 90 4x4 Toyota, 22RE. I saw the same wire dangling. It was too short to reach frame, I just used mounting bolt of EFI for ground. I never did know what it was for, but just grounded it for peace of mind.
