Any chance someone could verify where this end connects, It has a stake on connection and is located by the fuse box. The other end is connected to the radio capacitor that is on the back of the tach. This is on a 68.

My guess is the fuse box - here's a pic of my 1969 wiring diagram. Can't see great from the photo but it looks like a Brown wire?
Radio Cap to fuse box on Brown wire - I traced it in yellow...
You can see that the top Brown wire (I traced in yellow) appears to go to the fuse box. However, the 2nd Brown (I traced in Orange) appears to go to a connector in the dash. Can you see if you have a brown wire missing in either
the connector or fuse box?
There should be a ground lug on one corner of the fuse block (upper corner, I'm thinking). The wire from that 'noise suppression' capacitor goes to ground. (This assumes that the 1968 capacitor still works...which is unlikely.) And unless you still have the original Delco radio in your car, you probably are getting no benefit from that capacitor--even if it is viable.
