Well what I came up with was to ways of looking at it
first
green wire........negative side of coil
white wire........ red/light blue wire to your ignition switch
red wire............grey/yellow wire at your ignition switch
second way
green wire............negative coil
white wire.............starter side of solenoid
red wire.................to a 12v switched power source (comes on with key)
Also recommended grounding the module itself as there are no grounds for this from the module, may wanna put a fuse one of the wires just to be safe. Hope this helps

let me know how it goes
I have the same thing going on at my house. I have a 1990 Ford F150 Custom with a working 300 EFI and I have a donor 1984 F150 XLT with a 351W 4V H.O. with a C6. I could use any info that you come across. Thanks.
