Didn't want to take over another thread, so I started this one. On stated thread, you posted this pic. Is this plug coming out of the distributor or where it plugs into?? What exactly would splicing these wires together accomplish?? Thnx

It disables the ESC on an ESC distributor, so you don't have to get a new dizzy.

I post that from time to time to keep it "alive".
I hate ESC with a passion and that fixs it.

ESC let me down BIG TIME in the middle of Southern Cal and of course at night.
It -somehow- advanced the timing to the point of sounding like rod knock. I had to pull over and let the thing cool off for a while and then all was well.
ESC went BY-BY real soon.
