Re: Don't know where these go

They plug onto your distributor cap* . The red one (Actually pink) is +12V key on power to the coil , and the other (should be white I thought ?) that you identify as yellow is the tach signal . If you look at the distributor cap , you'll see where they plug in .


* assuming you have the large cap setup with the ignition coil built into the cap . If you have the small cap setup with the separately mounted coil , then they go to the coil and not the cap ...
