I'm not sure off hand. You might PM a buddy of mine "ebb". I know he is currently working on his wiring harness so he might know them off the top of his head (if you can't find the information here on the forum).

ummm the fuel thermosensor is connected on the same harness as the 2 secondary injector connectors

the water thermosensor comes out of the same place at the harness as the black fan switch connector does.

if this doesnt help I can find my fuel thermosensor and tell you the wires for it

The "Water thermo-switch (fan)" has a black wire with a red stripe. Other side of it is ground, colour not indicated (P Z42 of 1993 wiring diagrams book).

The "Fuel Thermo-sensor" has a brown wire with a yellow stripe going to the ECU and a brown wire with a black stripe going to two other sensors brown wires with black stripes, the "Water thermo-sensor" (which has a green wire with a white stripe going to the ECU) and the "intake air temperature sensor"(which has a green wire going to the ECU). That brown with black stripe line appears to be a common for a lot of stuff. Page Z30 and Z32 of above manual.
