orange and white wire?
hello, just got back from canada and getting back to my engine replacement install. Im having trouble getting it started, im getting spark, and im getting gas, just it doesnt start. Just looking over everything again I have a little orange and white wire coming from the driver side wireing harness. It HAD a little metal connector that is now broken off. Where did it go?

88 n/a. I just had a break through. I took out the lower spark plugs ( I was thinking it was flooded and it was) cleaned em off and put it in there fired right up reved to 3k VERY fast, and then died. What should I be looking for now?

Either way, jumpering this connector and trying to run it will rule out fuel pump voltage as being a problem if this doesn't fx it.

ok I did that, and I can hear the pump squeeling now, (and it get 13 volts) but still the same thing, now since its cold I have to kinda hit the gas at the perfect time to even get it to run.
Its weird now, I crank it and the first crank I can hear both pop pop like it wants to start and then after that it doesnt pop any more like there is no spark.... unless I start it perfect with the gass... it doesnt matter how long I crank it if I dont get it on the first crank it wont start.

you may want to do a compression test.
Low compression is a leading cause of flooding - and since you say it started right up after a thorough de-flooding procedure, it makes me think its getting flooded everytime you go to start it.
Check the FAQ for compression test procedures.
