Wiring nightmares!!

Wiring nightmares.


Here is the list of wires I need help to ID.
yello/blue tied into the ECM wiring. One of the wires leads to the vacuum 700R4 vacuum switch. I plan to remove the ECM so I don't think the wire to the switch is important.

The other pictures are of wirings with not IDed just yet.
Colors: purple, pink, (orange or brown), green, blue

The purple goes to the starter. My guess it goes to the same connection as the other wire connected to the small bolt.

The distributor still needs a BAT wire. I think the pink wire with the connection is the one to connect. The wire with the rubber connection looks like the oil pressure/choke connection. I'm not sure on the green and (orange or brown wire). I have to ID the temp guage wire. I think I used the stock wire for the digital gauge. I thinks its the green wire. So what goes where?

I removed the distributor to make routing along the fire wall easier. The oil primer is installed in place of the distributor. The motor has oil and is ready for priming.

Re: Wiring nightmares!!

the "BAT" label on the dizzy just means it needs 12V, do NOT wire it straight to the battery - it should be switched 12V power, in my truck there's a pinky-colored wire coming from the fuse block on the firewall, it's got one of those plastic connectors on it and can't be plugged into anything else than the dizzy really
