Where Are All The Grounds?
I've Looked Many Times. Can't Find Anything That Shows Me The Grounds And Where They're Supposed To Be Broken Down In Anything. I Know There's The Valve Cover To Radiator Bracket, (Manual)Trans To Chassis, But Where Else? I Read Where Lostforawhile Wrote, There Is One Behind The Underhood Fuse Panel Where It Attaches To The Body...But Is That The Same For F.I. Cars Too As I Think He Was Talking About Carbeurated Models, And I Noticed, Nearly All Their Eletrical Connections Ran Differently Than The F.I. A20A3.
Can Anyone Please Enlighten Me On The Locations Of The Other Ground Wire's Location. I Have One That's Either Shorted Or Not Attached, And I Can't Find It.

Hmmm. So when I say symptoms, I'm hoping for something more along the lines of "rough idle," or "won't start when the car is hot," or "stepping on the brake causes the headliner to catch fire."

You know, I had that very symptom. But thank goodness, my rear sunroof drains were plugged up and right after stepping on the brake caused my headliner to catch fire, the water sitting above my head sloshed forward and put the fire out.
Maybe it's time to go to bed now.

I Do. It's A Bad Habit I Picked Up In My Hardcore Stoner Days. :rocket:
Thanks For The Electrical Troubleshooting Manual Link. That Thing'll Surely Prove Helpful.
