Spout connector?
Here is a picture a stole from someone else. This looks identical to mine, except one of the wires is cut on the female end. Where does it suppose to go to? I just bought this truck. This is the spout connector right? 1986 f150 4.9 I6

Thanks! Now the wire on the female end of my spout connector is cut, where is it suppose to go? When I unplug the spout connector the timing should change correct? I'm assuming its not working because of the cut wire.
Also while I'm at it, where is the ISC Idle speed control located on the carburetor? The manual does not show it, only the curb idle speed adjustment and fast idle speed.
Thanks again.

I would also assume that its not working because the wire is cut. Cutting the wire is the same as disconnecting the spout...
Here is where the ISC speed control motor is:

Thanks for the info! Your getting me closer to solving this. On the SPOUT connector it is connected to the distributor but the other end has a red crimp going to nothing. I couldnt find a same colored wire near by, instead i found this mess. I found 4 wires connected to each other only by being twisted together. one wire goes to the coil, the other the coil resistor, then one the fire wall the other back end of the motor(either going to the firewall again or to the carburetor area. The other crimp comes from the coil resistor to the area behind the motor/firewall. I need a schematic!
I hope these help...
What is the SPOUT suppose to connect to? the computer right?
The last picture on the driver side fender has two separate connectors that are both yellow same as the SPOUT but i doubt they go to it being so far away.
The truck runs and idles, but dies under a load once I start moving.

The pdf would not attach. Tried various permutations of the file name, knowing we are on a *nix server and they can be pissy about file rules, size was within limits as well... who knows.
