When ryan was over at the house helping me remove the emisson stuff he pulled out a black ground wire from the harness on the firewal and said something about grounding this out. Does anyone know what he is talking about or do you have to ground anything before starting the car for the first time after the rebuild.

The only reason you ever have to ground that is to check/set timing. |

Seems to me like you've been getting a lot of 1/2 truths and misinformation 97TalonTsi. Be careful who you listen to.

Or 1/2 of the advice is getting listened to. Two things I ponted out were the termnal ground for setting timing, and the ground from the firewall that goes to the back of the intake mani.

All of that and I don't know what I want to do next. |
