Message #935 of 2693 |

my 626 has NO engine or tranny grounding wires!!! i think they were
taken off at some time and never returned. just discovered this when i
had my clutch changed.

can anyone help me regarding the location of this? i bought lots of
gauge 8 wire, and i intend to improve the grounding on the car.
hopefully this will help my other problems (e.g. the stereo WILL NOT
OPERATE when the engine is off), the occasional hard starting, and the
engine surging at higher RPM's.
