What in the flying heck is this thing? It's got a single vacuum line going into it, and two wires going into it. The PO ran one of them up into the cockpit and had it plugged into... nothing. 😂
 
I'm gonna guess an emissions solenoid, originally connected to a tangle of vacuum lines for distributor advance.
