  • Where does this wire go?

    88 Festiva LX
    Manual 5 spd w/ 130k miles

    I've almost gone a year on this cylinder head replacement, so I'm coming across stuff that I don't remember where it went. Case in point is this picture:



    I'm thinking the donut ground wire will go where I think it does, but I feel like the other two wires could both connect to the thermostat, I'm not sure if it is the smaller red/green wire or the larger blue one.

    And then where does the other one go if not the thermostat? I can't find another connection like that in that area.

    Please help. I'm getting close to being done. I'm not getting any spark from the wires so I'm trying to cover all my bases. Thanks.

    blue wire is the distributor pickup, goes to the coil.

    red/grn goes to sending unit.

      So I go out as soon as I post this and figure it all out. Now I'm getting the spark to all the wires (haven't checked the plugs yet) but not cranking. I'm going to make sure the timings right and then try to make sure fuels getting in there. Thanks for your help.
