Ok I understand. He ran a simple wire to the fusebox, but without an IGN 2 connection somewhere, forget it. It's not starting. Thanks for that.
So really, all I have to do is go over there and find the IGN2 wire that is supposed to go to the distributor and splice it into his new wire, correct? He can leave his new wire plugged in at the power block as it is effectively an IGN1 circuit. The original resistor wire will be redundant and coiled up under the hood or cut off.
To do it correctly, I guess that it's best to pull the resistor wire location and run a regular wire, but I'm not enthused about pulling the 53 year old harness end at the firewall and screwing around with it.
