On my 97 Z28 I want to put a fire sock or what ever you call it on the wires because that aluminum foil tape is gone and I don't want the wires to melt.
Do the wires come out of the connector?
I can't seam to figure how they come out and I don't want to break it.
I don't want to cut them.
Thanks,

 

You have to reach down into the connector and release it. A small screwdriver can usually get in to do it.

 

Is that from the plug side or the back side where the wires come in to the connector?
looks like this one with out the blue clip.

Thanks,

 

It's a regular, old connector, you just have to reach in there to unclick it from the opposite direction as you normally would.

 

I think his question was how do the wires pull out of the metripack plug, not how they unplug from the sensor. Unfortunately, I don't know, but trying to help clarify.

 

Yes thats what I'm trying to do.
I need to take the wires out because the fire sleeve is to small to fit over the connector.

 

You'll have to use a tool to remove the pins from the connector. I think eficonnection.com has some.

Sorry about being on the wrong track.

 

no problem.
They have some tools their but I have know idea what one would work on that connector.
And there not cheap either 30 bucks.
I can buy three of the pigtails for that.
I'm going to try to find the pigtail on one of my junk harness's and see how it comes apart.
I have found that most of the connectors will come apart with out the tools just might take a little more time.
And of coarse if you have know idea how they come apart they take longer.
