The other end of the orange fusible link splices to a pink wire that goes through a grommet in the firewall along with 6 or 7 other wires that lead to the ESC module mounted up under the dash near the glovebox.
Thanks, that must be what that wire is, I will just get a good 12V source and run that so I know what I have is good. I think when the 350 was dropped in the wiring was spliced to make it work and some connections may be loose.
