difference between '88 wiring harness and '86 wiring harness? 200 1986

There seems to be a difference in the harness of the '88 as opposed to the '86 model year...

there is a 2 prong connector on the '88 that is very close in proximity to the coil connections (and comes from the same bundle as the coil connections)... in fact the 2 prong connector has the same color wires as the coil (seems like it's some kind of extension for the coil wires)

One wire is Blue and the other is Red/White

I saw an '87 that a friend of mine had and it had this connector as well ... His connector attached to a female connector whose wires became a bundle and ran down below the coil then it looked like it was going back to the interior???

Is this connector necessary for my '86? Is it something I can wire up to add value to my ride?

or should I just secure it and make sure it won't short on anything?

thanks,,

ajck
