What is it? V5.3

Dropped the new 305 into my '84, started hooking everything back up and came to a roadblock when I found this. Comes out of the harness w/ the 12v power for the coil. Only thing I can think of is it's the unused tach lead that plugs into the distributor.

Any thoughts?

Oh, the color of the wire insulation is a light blue/green.

I'm thinking tac as well... check for 12v from that lead. There shouldn't be any volts from it if its for the tac.

Re: What is it? V5.3

Hmmm...I'll check that out. Perhaps it is for the choke and works in conjunction with this:
