? just starting to fininsh up the plumbing and begining to work on the wiring for my 6.9l idi engine swap project, I have the complete glow plug harness and actually still have the donor truck if anything else is needed, I understand these motors are fairly straight forward to wire up was just wondering if anybody has a diagram or any input, i am planning to use a push button for the glow plugs really just need to know what wires to power up for the glow plugs and the injection pump, the starter is staight forward, the idi is currently sitting in a 77 F250 so need to know what i need and where to get this thing up and running. A big thanks in advance for any help provided ! I am a fairly confident fabricator ,and mechanic just when it comes to wiring i still get lost lol!

Red/Lightgreen feeds the fuel heater also. It's not a very clear diagram is it?

Thanks for the help , got some of the wiring done today along a ton of other stuff, trying to fit this idi into a 77 f250 highboy. Got the glow plugs and starter wired up simple enough still not a 100% sure where to send the ignition key power to I think its the red light green wires? Also trying to figure out which wire to use of my trucks igmition switch I know i read it somewhere but cant seem to find it again, I think the correct ignition power wire from my 77 is red/blue that was powering the control module originally?
