I am trying to install a Painless wiring harness in my 79 CJ-7. It has a 304 V8 and I do not understand the connections from the electronic ignition to the coil to the solenoid. The diagram in the instructions mentions wires that are not present in the harness. I am not sure what the resistor wire looks like so I'm not sure I have one. I took a lot of connections and wires off the old harness because the connectors for the ignition were not in the new one. I have included some pics of things and asked some more questions. Also, there is not a connection in the harness for the brake proportioning valve or for the transmission wire. How would I go about getting them connected? They may have connections already built in, I just don't know a lot about wiring so I don't know where they go. I included the pic from the instructions that I used. As far as I can tell I have a Motorcraft Electronic Ignition System. At least mine looks the most like that picture in the instructions. Ha. Thanks for the help, this is what is keeping me from trying to crank it.
