Good Morning,

I was cleaning the throttle body on my '88 240 this weekend and decided to remove and clean the IAC as well. When I depressed the wire retaining clip to remove the connector at the base of the IAC the wire clip broke in half and the connector chipped at the corner. I finished the clean-up and put everything back together, using a quality electrical tape around the IAC connector once it was plugged back into the base.

The car runs fine, but I am not comfortable relying on the tape to hold the connection, can a replacement connector be purchased or am I going to have to make a trip to the junk yard for a replacement and then splice it in? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.


John
