    Bat= #3 wire,yellow, 12 gauge,ign feed
    Ign=#9 wire, orange, 18 gauge, temp gauge/ there are two#5 wires, red,18 gauge, they go to the oil and gen lights, #13 wire black, 14 gauge, goes to coil
    St= #14 wire,black 16 gauge goes to starter solenoid
    Acc=#6 wire, black and red, 18 gauge, goes to the gauge voltage relay on the back of the dash between the two gauges(temp and gas). Richie.
