So as I reconstruct my FI system I'm finding all sorts of weirdness. I found splices at the relay board.
The first splice is from pin 1 (big yellow wire) from the main harness to pin 6 (other big yellow wire) on the connector from the engine. From what I"ve read, this wire has to do with the starter solenoid? Why would someone jump the relay board except maybe there's a bad relay? Then why not just buy a new relay. The second splice is from the black/red (fuel pump?)wire on the main harness to the ground wire from the FI Harness (four prong connector to the relay board). Whatever the problems were, would it be best to start trying new relays without the jumps? New relay board? I want to get this back to a '73 stock FI system. What are most common reasons to do these relay jumps? Attached image(s)
