The replies to my first reply are very helpful; THANK YOU!!
There seems to be agreement that the green wire with the black cylindrical connector is for the A/C compressor. Since I have not yet installed the new
A/C compressor yet, that would make sense. The second photo from the top does show the black cylindrical connector that I have been wondering about, and also what appears to be the white cylindrical connector in that same photo. The white connector has the blue with red stripe wire is the one for the throttle solenoid on a 428CJ, but is that also true for the 351C? My car has the “Distributor Modulator System” (or “Dist-o-vac” system) on it, so I am wondering if this distributor system has a throttle solenoid or not?
The information on the Dist-o-vac system from West Coast Classic Cougars mentions a Thermal switch, Ford part # D0AF-12A164-B, which is only available used. Does anyone know where the Thermal switch is installed and where it connects to the wiring harness? (This a NEW question.)
There is still the other blue with red stripe wire that is right next to the other 2 wires but it is cut. I do not see that wire in any of the above photos.
The three wire plug for the engine feed has all 3 wires (none are blue with a red stripe) and the auto tranny 4 wire square plug appears to have all of the proper wires connected to it and is hooked up to the wire feed from the tranny.
