I am happy to report that all is well now with my friends truck. I was able to run a wire to the positive side of the coil and was happy with the results. I then discovered the exhaust coil was not firing, so I ran jumpers from the primary coil to the secondary and that fixed that issue. No stalling, idles is smooth after a little tweaking of the air/fuel mixture. Idles at 1000 rpm He says it has not run this good in 10 years. Made my day! Thanks for all the help and direction!

Awesome! I am grateful, was not sure if they had a constant signal. Thanks, I will let you know how I make out.

Ok, it is a two wire with a single connector, single nut up top. I am not 100 percent positive this is the original carb model for this truck, it had been replaced by someone previously and it came out of a salvage yard, my friend then bought a new one. trucks always been up here in Massachusetts, has over 3 million miles on it so far. just won't quit! I betting it's the correct unit for the truck, I would need to tap into the harness at some point unless I am missing the connector, I did not see any that would fit and or reach. if I am thinking correctly, I believe there is a relay involved so I would need to know the color code of the two wires and tap in there? it is the same carb selling on eBay. I don't have the truck here with me to take a pic.. :)

Greetings, I am working on a 1986 720 4x4, I installed a new carb and for the life of me can not find the electrical connection for the (1) Idle kick down solenoid & (2) the Anti-Dieseling solenoid, they go into a single connector, I can not locate where it connects to on the vehicle. The old carb had the wires torn out, when I began working on this, so can't backtrack and I do not see the connection anywhere... Could my friend have gotten the incorrect carb?... There should be one connector, semi-round, but I can not find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
