What's this relay?
Could someone tell me what is the relay mounted on the passenger firewall? The pink (faded red?) wire goes thru the firewall all by itseld to the fusebox to a terminal labeled radio. These two wires with spade terminals do not have a home. I think one of them goes to the tranny backup plug. If memory serves, this pigtail has always dangled loose. I don't believe this to be a block heater, as this is a Texas truck.

TCS- TRANSMISSION Controlled SPARK relay, there might still be a funny looking vaccumn switch mounted to the intake still, with two vac. lines one to it from dist. and one from it to ported vac on the carb. This is a early emission attempt it is supposed to retard spark in high gear to reduce emissions. Most of the time the relay and a wire or two is all that is left. Hope this helps. Harold

Thanks Harold. I tossed the factory manifold years ago and put on an Edelbrock Torker. That would explain the homeless wires and the 5 port vacuum tree I have.
