Could you tell me what these are?

[Cjordan]

So I've had this jeep for a few months and have been working on it as time and funds allow.
It's a 1982 CJ7 with a AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l
I swapped the Carter out for a Motorcraft 2150 from the eBay guy.
Hopefully the pictures will show up the first one is a relay on the drivers side firewall, what is it for, and the second picture is what appears to be some sort of fuse link that sets just behind the carb, but doesn't have a firs nor cover, so that makes me think it isn't a fuse link.

Let's see if I can get the relay to upload

The first photo looks like the plug in for an A/C compressor ........... don't know about the second photo.

Not sure about the relay, but the plug kinda looks like the one that goes to the horn

Dang I should have taken a better picture. Didn't realize that till just now. That fuse link looking thing is about even with the back hole on the valve cover, with not much slack. It might have hooked to something on the original breather but not for sure. It was unhooked when I bought the jeep. Horn works tho

Do your reverse lights work? The flat connector looks like the connector for a T-176 /7 reverse light switch. But that connector as said was also used for A/C.

Profile says 82 but looks like an aluminum intake which would be a 84-86. If that were the case the relay would be for the choke and intake manifold heater. The electric choke switch that starts it all working in next to the oil pressure gauge sender.
What color wires go to the relay, I can look at the schematics.

Or you can - here's a link to my Dropbox, has has drawings for 83 which should match yours. In color.

That's my guess.

Thank y'all for the help. The reverse lights do work, and it has AC although it's not hooked up. It had the compressor mounted in place, and I'm assuming what is the rest of the unit sitting in my shed. Big black box that mounts under the dash.

After looking at the relay some more I do believe it's for the choke, and since its busted that could explain why the choke isn't working.

I've traced the wires back the best I can and I will post pictures of what I have found but also give a discription of what goes where. Maybe y'all can help me a little more from there.

Ohh... also it is an aluminum intake, but the title says it's a 1882

Coming out of the relay is 4 wires. 1big red wire, two orange wires, and 1 green wire
Big red wire goes to the fuse box top left side "looking at the firewall engine side"

Green wire goes to the intake manifold 3/4 of the way back mounted on the side

1 orange goes to the bottom of the intake dead center to some kind of plate that is mounted to the bottom

The other orange wire I'm not for sure but I think it is running to the distributor harness

I'm going to try to post pics some times it works for me some times it doesn't.

Also what I'm assuming is the heater tubes. There are two of them mounted to the exhaust manifold, one on each side of the carb, they are about 4"-5" long but the ends have been cut and (bent/crimped) closed off. Are they supposed to be like that?

 

[Cjordan]

For some reason I can only post one picture at a time

Red wire at bottom of intake manifold

 

[Cjordan]

Well the above was the green wire going to the side of the manifold
Hopefully this one will be the red wire going to the bottom

 

[Cjordan]

Sorry, I think I had said earlier there was 4 wires coming out of the relay, but there are 5
The numbers on the prong side of the relay are
Big red wire #87
Green wire #86
Little red wire #85 which I think goes to the choke
Two orange wires #30

First off, 84-86 NEVER had alum valve cover as OEM.
Picture post#8 is a air-injection tube. That CJ came with an 'air-pump'.
IIRC: That plug from pic post#1 may have been for the auto-tranny interlock for starting. Not sure--

The guy at the parts house said it was showing up as a starter relay when he ran the numbers on it. It starts fine so I did t bother with buying another one at the price he quoted, about 18-20$ best I can remember.

Sorry about that, I got my pictures and post mixed up. The one you're talking about on the tranny interlock is the fuse holder looking plug.
It doesn't have much slack to go where ever it hooks to, that's for sure
