Cruise control help
I have an 87 Formula that I have converted to non-cc. Edelbrock carb and performer manifold, Accel HEI dist. I have disconnected most of the sensors, but not cut the harness anywhere yet. All the dash gauges work still. The dist is on the original 'bat/tach' hookup. I would like to know how to get the cruise working, if possible. The vacuum hoses to the module are hooked up as far as I can tell, no leaks. Is there something in the four pin dist hookup I may need?
thanks...
thanks...

Using a voltmeter or test light (the type for testing for voltage, not a continuity tester) probe the gray wire at the Cruise Module.
When you switch the Cruise to ON, is there power there?
Then probe the gray wire with a black stripe.

Did not delete the computer. Did go non-cc, though. I believe only the emissions have been disconnected.

Re: Cruise control help
Nina, I will check on your questions soon. The 88 needs a fuel pump first. Thanks for your posts, all.
