spout connector location

My truck is a 96 F150. I am not sure of the location of the spout connector. Just below the coil is a grey plug with a wire going in each side. My hazy Hanes manual talks about vehicles equipped with TFI-IV ignition systems. "Vehicles with a double wire spout connector incorporate a special shorting bar into the connector. Remove the shorting bar to disable ignition advance".

I believe the TFI is mounted on the drivers side inner fender just forward of the firewall. I have located a plug that fits the description of the shorting plug. Would this be my spout or is it the one below the coil???

Thanks for any clarification.

Chris

If it ain't broke.....change stuff till it is!


I believe it is just off of the distributor. There should be a bundle of wires running off the dist. that comes to an end, with a little cap on the end. thats the spout connector. pull it. at least that's where my 302 has it...haha. maybe the I6 isn't the same. but worth checkin....
