Need help figuring out 4 wires..
I need help figuring out 4 wires, ive sorted and fixed the whole harness except the wires by the back of distrib. ( i have an 84 bird ). original v6 car, v8 swapped. I assume the 4 wires will be Battery to distrib, Tach, Oil Press, and Temp gauge. Anyone help? Ill go try and figure out colors on them tonight. is there anyway i can test the wires and see which gauge moves?

Re: Need help figuring out 4 wires..
Haha, it just threw me for a second when you didn't mention ECM... I had to rewire my ignition setup last year and had to figure out my wiring too, and the way I did it was ohm metering the wires to their respective connections on the ECM... I'm not gonna be of any help on your setup though.
Sorry.

Oh okay, Well thanks for your input, the battery/ign to dist should be easy, the other 3 ill have to figure out what ohms to send it, and how todo that efficiently lol
Re: Need help figuring out 4 wires..
None of those wires changed from the V6 to V8 conversion and lucky for you, they never changed from 82-92, so ANY 3rd gen harness will have what you need
You want F4 (PNK), D6 (WHT or BLK/WHT), E5 (TAN) and F5 (DK GRN) respectively
