QUICK Q on the 87 Alternator pigtail

[mario65]

I don't have the stock pigtail and want to get a stock one back on. I bought it at NAPA but it comes with all the plugs and wires for other setups. Anyway can someone by sure memory or taking a look verify for me that there is only one wire in that pigtail of 4 and that its in the position I attached. IF you have more than one wire please tell me where it is located on the pigtail and where it goes.

thanks

Since it came with the other terminal/wires, you can add a charging safety feature quite easily. Find the PNK/BLK wire that goes to the EGR solenoid, splice into it and run it to terminal F of the alternator connector. This way when the dash bulb for the alternator stops making contact, or burns out, the alternator will continue to generate power.

Note that terminal F is next to the current one (L), but not the end one, the one in the middle.

Yes, check the other side of the connector, the letters should be molded into it.
