Exclamation CKP Wiring

The plug for my CKP is long gone so what is the correct connection for a two wire crank position sens on a 87 4.0?

IIRC, the wires on both sides of the connector are the same color... if theyre say Black and red, you would hook black to black and red to red. Theres only 2 wires, if you get it wrong the first time just reverse it.

negative the colors are red and white from the sensor and to the sensor is purp w/white and white w/black I understand that in a low volt system reversing really isn't that big an issue but this is a recurring issue so lets get it right this time.
