#1 on the picture, the brown wire, what does this go to? It's spliced into the red but the red is cut and hanging.

Also, #2, what is the purpose of this?


Can someone point me to a wiring diagram maybe?

Thanks for any help.

I guess I need to buy the cd's I see out there

there's a firewall connector in the wiring diagram, but not sure since don't know the 69 wiring. it "might!" be the brown one that goes to selonoid 'I' port. there are at least 2 brown coming through firewall and I can't really make out the amount of cables and the wires coming out of that plug you made a picture of

... and yes, get that shop manual. available as book also. i prefer books. all pages turn black from me messing, but still better than running back home to print 2 pages ...

 

#2 in your picture is some sort of ballast resistor...What kind of ignition are you running?

 

get the book... i bought the electronic version and I HATE how much restriction on use there is due to digital rights management.

The red wire on the left of the top diagram is what goes to the coil.

 

#2 is a ballast resistor. it's wired inline with the ignition system (one side ignition key switch, the other is to coil+). It reduces the voltage at coil when the engine is running (to not overload it). the ignition system is designed to run at lower voltage so it works as well during cranking ....

 

Thanks
