ok, so i got the alternator wires hooked up, i got the harness going over to the coil hooked up, the green/red wire going to the temp sender and the white-ish wire going to the air valve, all seemed to fall in place. Ran the wires for my xr700 to the distributor and the red/yellow wires to the coil
i take it the thicker of the coil wires is the positive and the smaller wire the neg/tach wire correct? i have a green w/ black stripe coming from the bottom of the motor, through the metal then cut off...then i have a connector w/ a green/black -same- wire going to the computer!!! is this were it would go to? ok the dumb question, when running, which way does the dist. rotate. I know the firing order by heart 1432 but in which direction. I would think clockwise but ya never know. I have racing wires which were on the motor when i bought it and since i put the xr700 on, i cant get the custom cut wires to go back on correctly, number two seems to be too short for some reason according to where it needs to be. May just buy some stock wires to start with. Im almost ready to fire this thing, need to mount the batt. tray, get a gel cell battery-optima- and tie up the loose ends, cant wait!!!!!!

all i can help you with is that the green/black wire is from the oil temperature sender in the taco plate under the engine drivers side front and that the decel valve (thing in the picture on the book) is mounted on the same side as the manifold pressure sender

A couple of us were talking about those "rubber splitter end" at the WCC05. One person said they were NLA and another said they were available from VW sources. Not sure if they are NOS or CSI. Waiting to hear. If they are NLA they can be reproduced. |

Not sure if this'll help, but it's a good one to keep at the finger tips.
