Wiring = the most daunting aspect of any conversion!

I finally managed to find some spare time! I mad a quick and dirty bracket to mount my "new" fuel pump. Getting very close to turn over the engine and test my ****ty wiring!
But... I've located the "test lead" in this diagram.
But uhm... Where do it go? And what does it do?Comment

I have no idea! I thought diagnostics was a more modern feature.... I guess that means I'm ready to crank it then!Comment

New jets arrived! Just need to find some spare time now. I'm slowly running out of excuses!Comment

Carbs has been rejetted. And a few new bits has been bought.
A new rotor was definitely needed...
Tomorrow my new ignition coil should arrive. Fingers crossed! My battery is charging now and hopefully everything is ready now. I've changed all the fuses and new coolant is going in now. Tomorrow will tell if my wiring skills are better than expected... Excited!!!!Comment

It's alive!!!
First try! It's only the stock manifold. No exhaust...
I didn't expect it to turn over so easily but it did! I'm one happy camper! Celebrating with wine and steaks now.
Next step is tuning it and getting the wire mess sorted.Comment
