Default Check out these pics: Std. vs. SOHC ZC wiring...

Ok, the cyl. pos sensor wires and plug hook up no problem, as seen in this pic:



However, the other two dizzy plugs do NOT meet. as seen on the bottom, the plug on the left only has 5 wires, and the plug on the right has seven wires. I'm not concerned about the plugs matching, cause i can just solder the wires directly together, but how do i get the wires to match? and where do the other wires come from?

Ok, i figured out that two of the seven wires are run back to the ECU. Now, how do i match up the five from my Std. plug to the five left on the ZC's dizzy plug?

the easy and most common way is to get the other side that plugs into the 7 wire distributor plug and just cut the old 5 wire one off and match color to color, then run 2 new wires from the ecu (most DPFI to MPFI write ups have the correct pin outs and wire colors) to the new 7 wire distributor plug (green, and blue if i remember correctly)

but yeah other wise just de-pin or cut the wires and match them color to color, then run 2 wires from the ecu and wire them to the 2 extra on the new distributor

But about this, none of the colors match!!! I got five wires from my harness, and five wires on the dizzy, but no colors match! Anyone got a diagram or sumthing?

I figured it out. All the colors match except for whever there is "peach". instead of peach on the usdm plug, they use orange. the stripe is still, blue, but peaqch turned to orange.

I'm gonna pick up some quick disconnects from radioshack tonight and wire them up so they aren't permanent. wish me luck!
