wiring confusion, 74 carbed 4cyl Options

[echocanyons]

I have installed the new engine in my newest 914.

The engine is carbed and and the engine bay wiring in a real mess with many cut wires and nothing is labeled.

I was wondering if anyone could steer me in the right direction as to what electrical connections I need connected to the motor/trans/starter to get this thing running.

BTW I dont have another running 914 to reference the wires to.

Maybe I can help here, the wires for the coil come from the block connector on the relay board. They should be black with red (heavy) black with blue or purple (thin) and the white wire. The heavy black one is 12v to the positive side of the coil, the thin black goes for the tach on the negative side along with the wire from the distributor, the white wire was for FI so you dont need it anymore. There is a brown wire that goes to teh ground terminal on the block. There should be a heavy red wire in the harness that runs back to the trans for the starter and a yellow wire with a spade goes to the starter terminal along with the positive terminal from the battery. There should be two wires with bullet connectors and they go to the backup switch on the trans. That should get you running assuming I didnt forget anything. Good luck.
