Where did this plug come from?

I've got this plug on my TPS. Does anyone recognise it? What do I need to plug into it? Or do I just chop it off and put something else on?

Regards,
Dave

+1. Bizarre looking thing. Most TPSs use the mini timer type connectors.

Ta, I'll whip it off then.

It's definitely from the throttle position sensor. The manifold is an offy 360, and the TB is a 4 barrel device a bit like a stripped down carb. I've yet to wire it all together as part of my carbs -> Megasquirt/EFI project. If someone said "Oh yes, you can get them from xyz.co.uk for £2" I'd be interested in buying one, but if it's a special order from the US for £20 + $50 shipping then I'll get the wire cutters out
