Can someone ID this wire for me please

[TheSquareGuy]

Running through wiring in my engine bay while everything is out. I've decided to just clip what I don't need, well I came across this wire I believe I remember it sitting on the passenger side of the intake manifold when the 350 was in, not connected to anything.

Its a pink wire with a black stripe coming from the firewall plugin. It has a green keyed connector, other than this I don't know what else to say, currently battery is out and there are far too many loose wires out and about for me to hook up a battery just to see when this wire has power

With all the evidence presented, that is definitely a wire.

I got that crap too I just meant the engine harness. You give me OBD2 fuel injection I'm good to go this primitive **** forget it lol. Concepts are the same I just usually tore it out for basic operation and carb.

Oh yeah for engine harness yeah currently I'm a totally basic bitch I've got my gauge sensors so like four wires total there then a tach and distributor so like 7ish wires??? Excluding plugs of course lol

Don't forget starter and 12v supply to the distribution block and alternator. And grounds don't be afraid to add a few it can't hurt.

I got it. I researched this on and off for the past day, and Jerry could have probably figured it out instantly, but here goes. I'm guessing this is on your '85, right? I saw a picture of the previous motor in it, and it had an Eddy carb. I'm also guessing that the stock Quadrajet is long gone. Anyways, if it's a 49 State (Federal) emissions truck, that wire plugs into a female connector that then goes to one side of the dual capacity accelerator pump connector. If it was a CA emissions truck, it's everything I said before except it goes to one side of the Mixture Control Solenoid connector on an E4ME Quadrajet and not a dual capacity accelerator pump connector. Unless you plan to run an 800 CFM 1985-86 M4M type Q-Jet with a dual capacity pump, and you have the temp solenoid for the other side of the acc. pump circuit, it's useless. I think what those were designed to do was give you a really nice pump shot when deemed necessary so it may be worth considering if you're doing like a built 454 or even a built 350/383/400.
