would someone look at their engine for me

Post by SGT BRAD » Fri Sep 14, 2007 9:25 am

i am literally at the last stages of installing my new motor and have switched to heavier gauge grounding wire. i went to hook all of the electricals up last night and couldn't remember where a couple of the grounds go! they are the 2 that begin grounded together just to the outside of the upper passenger's side tq strut mount. i just can't remember where they go from there. can someone look in the engine bay and give me a heads-up? i looked through the fsm and can't find anything definitive. thanks for the help guys.

Sorry for the small picture, it's the only engine shot I have in my photobucket.

But is that what you're talking about?

hey man good to hear you almost have it together... one strap goes to the back of the head on the side closest to that strut. should be a small bolt hole that will accept it. the second one goes onto a small screw on or close to the top of the torque strut.

hope that helps. i can take a pic later but i gotta run!

Good luck
