Getting close, yet far from done
Got most of the wiring routed and hooked up. But not reading to check for starting. next step is on to the trunk, remove and clean gas tank, clean the sump, new filters, new fuel pump, and replace fuel lines. In the picture with the wires circled in red, the tags came off, does or can someone tell or show picture of were they go?

If one end goes to the SAV (I am assuming both connections) the other end will the black wire to an earth (via another black wire it connects to) and the live feed to a source in the aircon circuit, possibly by the compressor somewhere, as the valve should open when the compressor kicks in to give the engine at tickover a few more revs. Lovely looking job, congrats.

I thinking they go to the electric "purge control valve"
If you have one.....at some point I think a change was made from vacuum to electric.....it'll probably be very close to the RH inner fenderwell, forward of the shock absorber area. It'll have a couple 3/8" hoses....one going thru the fenderwell to the vapor canister
cheers

sure I got this right know, Thanks Greg you guided me to the right direction, and thank Doug for your help, and Doug I understand what you mean when having a couple of different cars, things can get misdirected. any how, copied a pic from the parts manual and circle were I believe the the wires go.

Do you have the tube from the inlet spigot under the manifold throttle body for the black end of the solenoid to connect to?

The black wire is definitely an earth, so one SAV wire goes to that one (does not matter which as the solenoid is not polarity sensitive). Just test the pink wire to check that it goes live when the aircon compressor kicks in, and stops being live when it kicks out, a test light will do, or a meter. If it does then it will do fine, the solenoid uses very little current.
