Title: Engine block earth conections on a 3.2
Post by: tigers_gonads on 13 May 2016, 10:58:57

I know that the connections for the 2.5 /3Ltr are on the PAS bracket - front chassis and at the back of the coil pack.

I know the front one (pas bracket - front chassis) is the same but were the hell is the other one ?
Since the 3.2 doesn't have a DIS pack bracket, I take it is hidden somewhere else  :-\

Might have a earthing / charging problem that is causing a few weird and wonderful problems with my car at the moment  :(

TIA  :)

(From memory) the coil bracket doubles up as a lifting eye.

My guess is that the DBW engine has a lifting eye in the same location with some earth wires attached.

Crimps okay but I did find that the front homemade piggin bonding strip has gone walk about  ::)
Just ordered a couple of proper ones off ebay for a fiver delivered  :y

Makes sense Andy  ::)

Close, rear lifting eye is actually the bracket that the injector loom sits on :y
