 Thanks, Paul.=C2=A0 You are correct.=C2=A0 My only question now is, why do=
 I have this white/black wire going to nowhere?=C2=A0 Both the oil pressure=
 gauge and tach are working.=C2=A0 The white/brown wire was taken out of se=
rvice (before I moved it to the oil pressure sending unit) either by a prev=
ious owner, or the mechanic who installed my electronic distributor.=C2=A0 =
I don't know much about electronic distributors, so I just had my mechanic =
order and install it.=C2=A0 Is it possible one of the two wires (white/blac=
k or white/brown) was made obsolete by installation of the electronic distr=
ibutor?=C2=A0 Thanks.
