nickeboy 0 Posted July 4, 2006 hey all there is a little earth strap on my disributor, about 3 inchs long, that is just hanging there, there does not seem any where for it to go! i guess the dizzy has been changed at some point and i suppose it might go somewhere on anouther model? does anybody know if i should do something with this or just leave it!!! thanks nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spykee 0 Posted July 4, 2006 there should be a small spade connector on your dizzy that it attaches to, i would guess this is the same whether its been replaced or not. my advice would be to take the metal collar that the strap is attached to and bin it! its got fook all use to be honest! thats what i did when i replaced my distributor cap!

nickeboy 0 Posted July 4, 2006 it is connected to the dizzy, maybe it is suppose to go to the dizzy cap? what do you think nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spykee 0 Posted July 4, 2006 well my original one was a red plastic dizzy cap, under that was the dizzy and rotor with the spade connector on the side of the dizzy for the earth off the cap. with my new dizzy cap i have scraped the metal sleeve with the earth wire on it and have a black insulated, newer design dizzy cap. dont worry about it as its whats classed as a 'chuckable part' just get rid of it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
