Orange / red wire
I have the motor out and can’t figure out where this wire goes too . It runs with the green temp sensor wire . I tagged all the other wires but either it came off or I missed it . The yellow goes to the coil .

Re: Orange / red wire
This is in a '68, right? So there shouldn't be TCS like in this thread:

Re: Orange / red wire
I was going to guess the electric choke if that hadn’t been it.

Re: Orange / red wire
A little OT but since we are here, that yellow wire is a resistor wire for a points system. If you are switching to a HEI, it requires a full 12v and that yellow stainless steel wire needs to be swapped out to the fire wall. or you will kill the HEI electronics The lead on the cab side of firewall is copper and does not need any changes.
