I am checking all of my grounds right now. Ground number g100 on my Ty is not there. This is the one that is located underneath the passenger side valve cover on the head. Do i need this one? Probably a dumb ? but what the hell. If i do need it where is my wire? Where does it orginate from and terminate?

You have a manual, and still can't figure things out?

Where did you find that there is a ground UNDER the valve cover?
There isn't one, so quit looking there. There is one on the back of the passenger side head.

Ok, let's see what you are armed with:

A full set of service manuals.

the internet - so you have the syty.org and syty.net archives at hand.

Yet you somehow come to the conclusion that a ground terminates under a valve cover?

I suppose we are supposed to walk you through fixing every aspect of your truck, just because no one has anything better to do ?

Some people just should not work on a Syty, I believe you are one of them. This isn't meant as a flame, just stating my opinion. You don't know how to read a manual, you expect everyone to give you the answers, when the people give you the answers you seem to avoid those solutions.

You know how I would have helped you on that question? I would have pulled out one of my manuals, and looked up the answer. So what have we gained? You wasting someone else's time.

If you were asking a question that hasn't been posed before, or was tricky, it'd be one thing, but basic grounds?? Come on, this has been posted before, you spending 5 minutes in the archives, or in your manual should give you the solution.

I did look on the cd manual. I cannot find where that wire originates from so i can correct it so i figured ask the guys that do know. Do me and you a favor, don't ever respond to one of my posts. There i FIXED that problem!

I assume your talking about the ground in the back of the passenger side of the block (or is it maybe on the head). It is down by where the ECM wiring harness comes out. I think it goes from the block to the body, but I remember it was the last wire I had ot disconnect to get the motor out.

are you talking about the huge - batt cable? that is supposed to terminate on the back of the pass side cyl head? the small copper cable on the drivers side cyl head. or the 3 seperate ECM grounds going to the front and rear of the drivers side of the intake?
