Title: Where does the ground wire attach?
Post by: resistor on August 14, 2009, 12:47:44 PM
So it's been a year since working on it and we had the engine pulled... it's basically all back together (even fired up for a minute last night) but now but I can't seem to find where the ground from the battery attaches to the frame... Help!

Thanks!

Which ground? There is a black and white wire with a black connector which serves as chassis ground. (Not clearly labeled in the book.) I think you can attach it to any bolt as long as it makes good contact. The heavy black wire coming from the engine should simply connect to battery negative I believe.

Good luck.

Well I have it reversed... I have that heavy black cable on the battery negative, just can't find where it goes on the engine :)

Help  :dunno_white:

Nothing I like better than trotting out a 10-year-old photo to answer a question!  :thumb:
