Stray wires/plug after swap

I got a 88 N/A with a bad motor so i put a new motor in and all is good minus a few small things. I have a few extra wires that i don't know where they go to. One is a yellow or orange wire with a red stipe on it with a single connector on it. Looks like it should slide onto a prong or something. It's on the drivers side. If you pull it all the way down to the bottom of the motor it will reach where end of the block by the tranny. Also i have a black wire (ground ?) with a little box on the end and metal on the end of the box with a hole for a bolt in it. This is also on the drivers side. Any ideas where theses go. Also my oil pressure guage dosen't work.

I believe the first wire you spoke of goes to your oil pressure sender. It is on the rear iron houseing from my memory. And it like you said, just slides onto a nipple on the sender.


The second wire should be bolted under your slave cylinder. The part that moves the clutch fork, and has a hose going to it from the fire wall. I don't think it matters if it goes on top, or under the slave cylinder.

Single wire? There's a round plug that's your coolant sensor I believe, and then there's the big round cylinder (oil pres unit), and the wire for this will slide on sideways and clip on.
