A/c connector Q for 5.0 86-88 engines.

Hey guys, long time no see. Anyhow, I am working on the Bird, and I came across a small problem: I don't know what connector on the body (or is it engine?) harness I need to hook up the short a/c clutch harness. Is it a cylinderical one with something like 4 wires coming into it? I checked on the Stang, and it's connector was cylinderical, but it had only two wires going into it. The reason why this is such a hassle for me is that I don't have the 5.0 a/c clutch harness, so I have to cobble one together using the 88 3.8 harness.

So, anyone have a pic, or a good description for me? BTW, we're dealing with the standard, non-ACC system here.

Thanks

Joe

Hey Joe... Thought you were buried in a snow bank.... So how ya been???

The wire is a black yellow to the compressor, its in the engine(firewall) harness. Don't have a pix as I cut my connector off and did a direct splice....

Oh Hell, I almost forgot I have a '88 5.0 Bird I got a month or so ago, I can check it and get a pic.... I'll be back later...
