mystery parts
« on: December 18 2021, 11:07:06 PM »
The guy who sold me my Regal sent along boxes of extra parts, including mufflers, exhaust manifolds, and lots of miscellaneous things.  I don't even know what some of them are, as they are unlabeled.  In fact I don't even know if they are car parts.  Hmm.  So here's a couple to start with.  See pictures.

Green thing I believe is a warning signal/buzzer/controller for seat belts, key on or idiot lights.
last thing may be part of factory alarm system. hard to tell without seeing the connectors

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Turns out that the green box in the first message IS a vehicle speed sensor.  Probably replaced because the cluster was replaced and the speedometer now goes to 145 instead of 85.  So Daveismissing got that one right.

No, it's plastic.

The first picture in the second message is indeed an EGR Vacuum Solenoid.  Steve got that one, thank you.

Here's the flip side of the second picture in the second message.  It appears to have a part number on the back, but a search didn't find it.
