Mystery connector

Does anyone know what the green connector in these pictures is for? There doesn't appear to be anything else within reach for this connector to latch on to.

My car doesn't have an underhood light, and the connector is too short to reach the hood anyway.

This is the test connector use to check the air-fual ratio on Computer Command Control(ECM) for LG4 and other carb engines installed in the Third Gens. I had this connecter on my 1982 Firebird with the LG4 connector.

Bruce is exactly correct! Connect a dwell meter to that connector and it will tell you the frequency of the Mixture Control Selenoid that is located inside the carb.

Other connectors/relay

The circled connectors, what are they for?


If they are for the AC.....
If I have deleted my AC system can I cut these out of the wiring harness?

well the round one is to the AC low pressure switch so yeah you can do away with that if you want but the other one is to the blower relay ?resistor so youll need it for the blower to operate properly.
