Hyspeedz Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Just installed new belts, hoses, vacuum line, and saw this on the firewall. What is this? It looks like a ground cable or wire. Thanks for any response. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Yes it bolts to the exhaust manifold bolt. Take a look and you will likely find the other end there. I wouldn't try unbolting it for fear of snapping the stud off, instead crimp a lug on the end of the wire and install it under a valve cover bolt nearby. Grounds are always good to have and this may make it run better. Quote Link to comment
Hyspeedz Posted September 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Excellent, Datzenmike. Will do. Thanks for the reply. Quote Link to comment
Tinman Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Yep, exactly what it is. I also had to replace the crimp connector and screw it under one of the valve cover bolts. Grounds are VERY critical in these trucks! Quote Link to comment
