I have to be honest--I did not look into this thoroughly now and it's been decades since I've dealt with this part but----I looked at my own 1980 245 and can see there is a green wire that goes to a vacuum valve mounted on the firewall just to the passenger side of the car. It causes the idle to rise when the A/C is on---been 15 years since my a/c worked :-( -- Things are too grungy in my throttle body area to make out exactly how it all works. Maybe it's related to the mystery wire. That also triggers this thought--isn't the + wire to the compressor green? -- Dave
