this is the wire that i needed to know, its the plug with the spirally thingy....seen from this pic









this is where it leads to, which is where the distributor is...









that wire is faulty... in the middle of the wire it is split open, i just electric tape the dang thing...you can see my crappy taping work in this pic in the bottom left..

I found this diagram for a 93 Camry.

There are a couple different engine types so I'm not sure I grabbed the right diagram.

If the wire that your looking for is the one with the orange box around it,

then it is called the "Resistive Coil Cord". I hope this helps.
