What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[1990new]

Mounted a chrome hood strut from a 2002 VW Jetta on my 1990 Surf Blue (With advice from bravekozak).

Took it good golfing. And couldn't figure out the timing issue so I advanced the timing all the way. Lol. Sucky gas mileage now.

[200KGPGTP]

Yep! It was between that and the starter post lol

[ckiesman]

So I assume that helped, lol

[200KGPGTP]

well, on mine i see a black wire with a ring terminal coming out of the starter harness. It's attached near the clutch cable bracket with a 10 mm bolt. It looks like it goes right where the main ground goes to the transmission.

Excellent, thank you!!!

Well considering the engine only has around 140k miles on it, I don't think the valve guides would be too worn, especially on these engines.

Received the Felpro valve stem seals in the mail. Now just waiting on the valve cover gasket.

I guess the intake and exhaust seals are the same? Since they are just thrown in bag, and there is nothing to differentiate any of them.

God I hope this gets done right, I also hope it is just the seals, and not the guides as well.

sorry, i didnt notice this posted twice.

[200KGPGTP]

It's a b3 harness, so it doesn't matter. Just need to know where it went

Battery ground is a fairly big wire. It runs to the body, too.

Starter has a large gauge wire with a ring and a smaller wire with a connector for the solenoid.

I can't remember a small wire with a ring.

Yes, all of those are connected. The tiny wire with ring comes out of the harness right with the spade wire with the starter

EFF. There is a very small single wire with a ring terminal at the end back there somewhere and I'm not sure where it goes.

On the trans where the battery grounds.... does it go there?
