In the yellow and black wire loom going to the temp sensor, my black wire is not hooked up. I thought it went to the distributor. (Spade connector for the old points?). I'm running some electronic distributor of some sort. 

I checked the wiring and engine diagram but didn't see it marked anywhere. Just curious. Car runs fine. 

On a side note, over the holidays I got the:

- Tach to work

- Brake lights and directionals going

- Cigarette lighter working 

- Found out what's wrong with my headlight switch

- New Brake booster installed (Warning Don't lose the clip on the large pin for the pedal. Luckily I found it. Seems the 73-83 pin is the same and available, but not the 70-71.

- Visors and Rear view mirror installed.

 

Found a pic accidentally browsing another thread.

if you ground that yellow wire, with the ignition on, your temperature gauge should jump up to "full".

Yep thanks. Temp gauge is working fine. I was trying to remember what the black wire was for. 

 nice pic! Thats my distributor. 

Yes, the yellow wire goes to the temp sensor and the black goes to the points. I usually pull that wire if I don't want spark.
