    These wires are coming from the front of the transformer as you can see from the picture. I'm assuming that is where I should make my connections to the cable going to the thermostat. Is that correct? Sorry this is taking so much of your time.

    Actually the thermostat wires go under the screws that are labeled R and W on the face of the transformer. I have no idea what the other wires are for unless they were somehow removed from the transformer. It is impossible for me to figure out with the wrong color wires.

    That answers my question! I can see the R & W on the transformer. Thanks for all of you help and patience!!

    NO problem and be careful if this is in a garage since it is supposed to be mounted 18 inches off the floor to prevent vapor flash from the gas in the cars/lawnmowers and the furnace has to have protection posts if set in front of a car where the car can hit it. This is the building/mechanical code for garage install. Sorry but I just remembered that. You can probably get by if the combustion chamber is 18 inches off the ground but the posts are a must. You would be surprised what I have seen on inspections.

    This furnace is being used to heat my shop and workout rooms. No cars. I have constructed a standard that elevates the appliance 22" from the floor so all is well. Thanks for the info. I'm finished!
