Info Needed On Wiring Harness

Post by fordf101968 »

I have a 1968 Ford F100 and I got a new harness from a 1971 Ford F100 that had no engine in it. It has a Carb. Throttle Solenoid connector. What is a Carb. Throttle Solenoid? What does the wire going to it do? :?

It's a small solenoid that mounts on the left side of the carb. It kicks the idle RPMs up when you turn on the AC.
