Unkown Wires

I have found two loose wires that I am sure should be hooked up to something, but I can not figure out what they go to. Any help?

Maybe visit realoem.com for exploded parts views, to trace what they are connected to, for doing what.

Or, see what isn't working, or look for dangle things that have plug ends that match.

I'm going to throw a wild guess to the wild question, former cruise control option?

What year car?

It is a 1976.

The single wire may go to the 35 or is it 45C switch down on the AAV housing. Part of the FI. Or to the oil pressure switch. Might be able to track it down by color or number, I think some of them had all white wires with numbers on them. The double connector would be part of the smog controls, there were depending on year and location either 2 or 3 vacuum switching valves like the one on the right in the picture. I think they were all EGR control, but may have played a part in ignition control, I can't remember. The ones taped together may be part of the same.

Wasn't EGR wonderful?

Thanks everyone. No luck yet, and now I have found yet another stray wire up near the battery. I am still trying to figure this out.

Colors, we need colors to try and track stuff down!
