90 F22B swap died

[boostjunkie369]

I just swapped a f22b dohc into my 90 lx and my ground on the driver side is smokin and now the car won't start. How do i fix this?

[kelton]

Ground on the drivers side? The valve cover ground? Take a picture.

And what is your car doing. Does it crank? Do you have spark/fuel?

[boostjunkie369]

Yea its the one off of the valve cover, i don't know if its getting spark/fuel im 45 min away from the car my dad says it cranks and that it popped the spark plug wire off.

[kelton]

that ground is pretty much useless. Are you sure it was that smoking? lol

[boostjunkie369]

Yea it's the one coming off the valve cover i think the problem is that the ground that should go to my tranny is bolted to my fender what really sucks is that im at school so i havent been able to see my car to find out

Well when you get back to your car, bolt the ground to the trans. Check for fuel and spark. And any blown fuses.

ummm yea thats the big ground. So the tiny little ground on the valve cover is smoking because its overloaded. Connect everything right.

[boostjunkie369]

could anyone tell me where on the trans the ground is suppose to be bolted

[Flatline]

in front of the motor by the front mount on the battery side. mine went from the bracket there (you can't miss it) to the battery (-) side. now it's bolted to the frame.
