I have recently started working on my 1990 4Runner after a long time of not working on it due to a lack of funds. I am now trying to instal a new igniter assy however it's been so long since I took the old one out I can't actually remember what is meant to connect where.

If anyone has a 22R engine with the igniter assy correctly hooked up I would greatly appreciate any photos of what gets connected to where.

 

Throwing in a couple of pics to help specify what I need.

first pic is the wire that runs from the igniter to the distributor. I know where that one goes. Second pic however there is only one plug left next to the assy but 3 plugs leading from it and none of them plug into it. I may need to rewire something but not sure which plugs I would need to replace to connect

 

'90 with a 22R? Where are you? The photos you posted aren't of a 22r or 22re for that matter... that I know of.

Anyways... the plugs are keyed and only fit their mate.
If you have plugs that go nowhere, you have the wrong parts for your truck.

 

The original part that came out had plugs leading nowhere as well. The marker on the front of the engine says 22R. Any idea what the hell else it could be if that's not what it is then?

 

Someone may have swapped in a carb'd long block and left the old valve cover on which may have said "22R".

If you have injectors, it's an RE. If you have a carburetor, it's an R.
