I had done an SU conversion back in the early 90's on my ex-79. The SU's I
believe were off a TR-4 but I really can't verify that because I had them a
long time before I was able to put them to use. Anyway, I could adjust the
mixture.

I stripped all the stuff off as we have no testing here in the
flatlands(yet).

I believe the wires are for something to do with the idle when the A/C kicks
in but its been a long time. My A/C never worked.

Once sorted, I really liked mine.
