    Default Timing belt and water pump replacement

    Replaced the timing belt/water pump/etc on my new '95 today. Thanks to Majik and POS for the tag-team help. It's all back together and running nicely. I had a few parts left over (nothing important )and was wondering if anyone recognized where they belong. One (right) of them is for the O2 sensor harness to clip to, but I couldn't figure out how it's orientated. I think the other (left) came off around the power steering pump, but I could be wrong. See the attached pics.

    The one on the left goes on the thermostat housing or close to it to hold the wires from the switch on top of it.

    I forget the other one...

    I think the one on the right was attached to the the drivers side of the coil with the bolt that goes into the valve cover.

    +1. IIRC, the wire to the O2 Sensor has a clip that snaps into the bracket as well.

    It looks like 18-995. And I was looking in the correct area. I think your 1.6 has a few differences vs. my 1.8 with all the little connectors/etc.

    Yep - mine doesn't connect like that picture, so I don't think I have one of those brackets.
