    I just replaced the intake manifold on my 2003 3.8 Grand Prix. Everything went well untill until I got done and I have one wire left that I cannot find where to plug it in. It is on the front of the engine and has 3 prong plug. All the rest of the plugs are easy to find, but this one has a long wire and reaches most of the engine. I should have taken a picture of it, but it got dark. Just hoping someone can tell me where it goes. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Maybe the temp sensor under the thermostat?

    Could be. The thermostate is on the right side (facing engine from front) (driver side) and I don't recall seeing anyplace to plug it. I will certainly look closer at that area tomorrow (might grab a flashlight tonight). Is there a plub under the bottom intake manifold in that area? The wire would certainly reach that area.

    Yes that is where the temp sensor is is right under the radiator hose. And that is the left side of the engine not the right. Right side is passenger.
