That's part of the injector harness.  Would you prefer a full injector harness rather than having to cut and splice?  I started to pull one from Scott's scrap engine yesterday but got sidetracked.

Well, I really just need pictures.  I guess cutting it out would be a bad thing.  That's why I did not get one from Todd.  I have looked high and low for a replacement pigtail, but had no luck.  I need to see the latch part of the connector.

IIRC, the cold start injector looks very similar to a regular injector. Rectangular plug with two contacts.
I don't believe they are interchangeable, however.

And yeah... they never came as just a pigtail. They are made into the injector harness.
There were only two injector harnesses ever installed in a V6 Fiero. One (the most common) has a flat connector, where it snaps into the main harness. The other (only used for some 88s) used a more square connector.

Aside from that... If you're running a 7730, you shouldn't need a cold start injector. Unless this is for a different car, of course.

Not for my Fiero.  I have my cold start injector.  It's in a bag, sitting in a bucket of old parts.

I need to clarify.  I need the switch end.

I'll see what I can find.  I'll also test to see if it will attach to a regular injector.  I'll send you pictures of both ends.

Sorry.  I've been busy with some charity work and forgot all about it.  I think I have a harness in the truck that I picked up at Scotts this week.

I have the injector harness in hand.  I've test fitted a standard fuel injector into the cold start injector harness end and it's identical to the regular injector harness end. 

The end of the injector harness is a flat 6-pin harness that plugs into another harness near the MAP sensor.  This portion of the harness doesn't have the part that clips onto the cold start switch.  That's apparently part of the engine harness.  I can get pictures of this harness tomorrow if this is what you need.

Unfortunately, I need the part that clips onto the cold start switch.

I'll check to see if Scott still has one on the scrap engine.
