Looking for obscure connector

[Colin Goodall]

I am in the process of trying to track down the connector for the EFI computer 
on a 1982 Honda CX 500 Turbo (Motorcycle).  The computer is manufactured by 
Nippondenso and has a 35 pin connector.  Pins are 3 mm wide on 5 mm centers.  
There are two rows: 1 with 17 pins and a second with 18 pins.  The engagement 
of the connector is via a lever motion.  One end hooks in and the connector is 
levered down into place where it clicks into place.

The connector I am looking for is the male side of the connector which is part 
of the computer.  On this side I can find no identifying marks as to 
manufacturer or part number.  However on the female side I found the connector 
marked as an AMP product with part number 171715.

Much searching on the AMP site provided no information.  However I did find a 
printed AMP catalogue which contained a whole series of connectors that seemed 
to be the correct type.  The go by the name "AMP Timer Connectors".  Out of the 
whole batch I found only 1 connector on their web site.  It was AMP part number 
2-825213-5.  I found only 1 supplier which listed the part number but when I 
conteacted them they had no more in stock.

If anyone knows a source for this part (or suitable replacement) I would really 
appreciate it.

Thanx
