If you are talking high pressure CFI, the ignition signal pulses the
injector. CFI in FordSpeak means Central Fuel Injection, not Continuous
Fuel Injection. The Orange and Yellow wire from the TFI module is the
trigger for the CFI (EEC-III) computer. Black is ground, light green is
the "points" wire (coil negative to ground) The red and white wires go
to the ignition switch. On EEC IV,  it is a lot more complicated. Let me
know exactly what you are working on and I'll try to get you a diagram.
