Does anyone have the wire color codes for the VSS signal wires on an 86?

They have appearantly changed between the 86 and 87 and the Haynes manual doesn't appear to show them. It doesn't show the EEC either, for that matter.

The one's I refer to are the one behind the driver's side kick panel in the 8 pin connector.

Thanks,
Daggs

Thanks man. I think I found an answer over on 4EP. I'm not sure it'll help my current issue though.

I finally got around to doing the swap in preparation for the new combo and the thing idles like it's got a cam from hell.

All relative material so far says that the VSS signal wires not being hooked up would have nothing to do with it.

Needless to say, I converted back to the SD computer before day's end. At least now the harness is installed for my next attempt.
