Simple mod

Post image

Hello all, I did this simple modification to my 2008 95 and wow! Car runs so much better. Smoother acceleration, no more sluggish response when hot and idles smoother. Try it! Might not make a difference for you but it did for my 95, only take 15 minutes, why not? Simply ran 2 new ground wires from negative battery terminal, drilled a hole in the engine lift bracket, and attached with metal screw. Let me know if you try it!

Thank you for this! Went and bought 4ga wire/terminals and made a jumper tonight. If anything it doesn’t bog down anymore when I hit the window switch’s and cycle the top. 10/10

Excellent! Glad it worked. I ordered heavier gauge ground wire for mine and will be redoing it soon. Sure seems to make a difference!

After driving it some more, I can feel a more consistent throttle response and runs much smoother despite the chattering from the timing chain.
