If that's the right wire, and it sounds very likely, grounding it would have kept the engine running lean, which might have been okay if it was tending to run rich for some other reason. I'd watch for it to be rich now that you've fixed it, so you will want to be checking for things that might have caused rich running, like low charging system voltage. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
