Ok so I have a 1986 Regal Limited 307 Roller motor. I am trying to figure out where these plugs are supposed to go before i cut them as i am stripping the ECM and installing non CC Carb. The big one with the blue red and light blue wire is connected to the small black negative cable on the Alternator and then it goes into the fire wall behind and under the Brake booster.

The plug with the black and green wire is on the passenger side and was just hanging near the headers. It runs down towards the distributor and enters into a "T" shaped wire terminal. It is melted and ruined but i want to make sure i can cut it off or if i should find another plug.

I have spent the better half of 6 hours probing forums and google images trying to figure out where those two plugs are supposed to be hooked to and never found anything. Did Buick/Oldsmobile just use a generic wiring harness for everything which left certain plugs unused?

Also on the picture of the plug that is in the manifold near the Alternator with the black and yellow wire, that was connected to the ECM. Is that the temperature sensor or is that other plug next to it, what is that plug and how will it not being connected to an ECM effect me? Thanks for the help!

The black and green wire with the melted connector is for the A/C compress or and that goes to the square connector by the pass side of the distributor.
The wiring under the brake booster is the harness for the cruise control to the grey connector in one of the other pictures.
I see you still have the original distributor, when deleting the ccc carb the distributor needs to be changed also it's an all or nothing deal. The wiring to the ecm and ecm can the be deleted, will not affect the gauges, this is a common concern.

Thank you so much for the quick and helpful reply. I can't seem to find where the cruise control plug goes into, I just don't see any connectors.

The part that the grey connector plugs into is not in the pictures. There is a bracket that bolts to the thermostat housing and alt bracket with a rubber diaphragm on it for the cruise. The other end of that wiring harness goes to a black box right above the gas pedal.
