My car came minus most things in the engine area, including the engine & tranny. I have no point of reference to work back from.
Tonight i made a new alternator harness and wired that in. I think the starter motor wire from the battery is routed over the tranny so i've just looped that over for testing. I have a new 34 svda distributor to fit which has a black wire and a red wire (electric module not points). I also extended the existing fuel pump wires in order to run the new pump up front under the tank from the existing ignition / relay design. Now all i have is one green wire which i believe is for the head temp sensor. There are no other wires in the engine bay. So what wires are missing to successfully wire up and run the engine? The starter has only the battery cable & alternator cable fitted to number 30? Connector, the spades are empty. The coil has nothing connected to it. The relay board has the main loom connected and all relays are present. It'a 74 2.0 running twin 40idf's. I cannot read electrical diagrams such as what ypu find in haynes manuals etc. |

You have to make a jumper to get the fuel pump to work with the stock relay, as that relay is triggered by the injection system.
Did an engine harness come with the car? Oil pressure switch wire is green with red tracer. |
