Just The wiring harnesses & connections in question.

There are two coming out the firewall behind the fuse box unless you have cruise control & a camper special.

engine starting question(wiring)

I got the engine running today I took a 12v wire to the coil , then ran a 12v to the red wire on the two prong plug on the ignition module jumped a wire across the solenoid and she fired right up
I got some info from 73Custom and he was right
the motor started right up and runs great It has a few oil leaks but i think I got a good deal
the 4x4 works motor runs and I gave him a $100.00 for it


thanks
for the help I am sure I will be back with some more questions
here is the pic
it is a little late
