TurboTobz Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Just saw a bit of smoke coming from my bonnet some ones replaced the earth between engine mount and body of car with what looks like remote wire, I had to cut it to get home.What could this be down to? Quote

TurboTobz Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Yesterday I tucked my injector rail wires to the rear of the injectors and spun them 180.Also removed charcoal filter sensors.I doubt it has something to do with filter sensor, I would have expected the efi fuse to go?Is there any way I can test Anything easily, after cutting the earth I've seen no difference running wise, but no more burning. I really need to take the car out at ungodly o'clock tomorrow morning, and then in the afternoon the cars meant to be making a 45 min trip for a colour change over the weekend.What a poo time for this to happen Quote
TurboTobz Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Just metered between the cut link and getting 0v so I'm guessing it was just a pony earthing strap? Quote
