so i got rid of my dizzy and coil and went megajolty, as such i now have a few wires without a home. What is the most acceptable thing to do with these wires, if +'ve can i place on alternator? if -'ve can i ground? I suspect one of them was power for my fuel pump and tacho.... kinda stumped with wiring. so lame. :oops: :oops:

When you have wires that are no longer needed it is always best to terminate them and put in a harness plug and leave them visible and accessible in case you need to use them for something else in the future. Might save you time.
