Car is a 73 2.0L with stock FI. After R&R'ing the drivetrain for some much needed cleanup and hose replacement I've got a couple of questions on sensors.
1. What color is the thermo switch wire? There are two wires nearby, grey/brown and white. Just can't recall which it is. The grey/brown reaches better, but the elec. diagram shows white. 2. What is the other wire for? 3. Is the distributor air temp sensor what's called "temperature sensor I" on the electrical diagram? Thanks Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

No. Ts1 is screwed into the top of the plenum next to the tps( throttle position switch). The thermo time switch attaches to the bracket you have circled. It has a plastic plug with two wires. The single white wire plugs into the red wire next to your circle. That white wire with the orange stripes is not stock.
Btw, you car will run without those wires attached Edit. The thermal switch may only have one wire. I should be white too, but it won't have the insulated cover over the spade connector. |
