1970 torino starter solenoid wire colors?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Im confused with a couple of these solenoid/voltage regulator wires and was hoping someone here could assist. There is: 
a red/blue wire 
a red/green wire
a brown wire
a large black wire
a black wire that pops out of the harness about 6 inches before the rest. 
I believe:
brown goes to I terminal
red/blue goes to S terminal
red/green goes to voltage regulator

It appears to me someone coated everything with black paint so im not sure if the smaller black wire is actually black. I got the car as a roller and put a 302/c4 in it if that matters, everything was taken out and I'm having a bit of a struggle getting it all plugged in.
