Happy New Year Everyone,
I am trying to do a bit of a refresh on my 1971, D-Jet stock car, (new vacuum hoses, valve adjustment, etc.) and I would like to pull out my AAR valve and inspect it closely (or replace with a known good one I have) but I am fearful on how to disconnect the AAR wire to the white wire. Its encased in what looks to be stock plastic rectangular wire cover, but figured I would ask for advice before I do any damage. Thanks in advance. Best, Reg |

Just a standard space connector under the plastic housing.
Make sure that wire is well insulated. It supplies full time 12v sourced from the fuel pump fuse. A short to ground will kill power to your fuel pump and/or melt wiring depending on the size fuse you have installed on the relay board. |
