Quick Q: Ignition Wiring - Do I Ground This Wire?

[madmoomoo]

Hey folks,

Very quickly - I changed spark plugs on the 33, and the wiring going to the collpacks has one more small black wire with a metal "O" on the end (the type that would normally be grounded to something). This wire is coming of the main strand of wiring, before cylinder 1. The black wire is about 3 inches or so long.

Should this be grounded? Or do I ignore this wire or ???

Please help, I really need to use car quicklly....

spanks.

it's ok. I sorted it out myself. I grounded the wire cos i thought it would be stupid to have a black wire with a big metal thing on the end, and for it not supposed to be touching something metal. I didn't die and the car's not in flames, so all is good.

I know you've sorted it yourself, but I thought I would add that ordinarily it's grounded via one of the bolts that holds the ignitor module in place.
