# This damn noise is back!!-->

Posted by Kevin (93SE 5sp) on October 06, 2003 at 11:18:51: OK I posted here a while back about my car was sounding like a lawnmower and crap. I replaced the 1,3,and 5 injectors and things seemed fine but would still get the noise but not as often as before. Now it sounds like a helicopter/lawnmower again. For the life of me I can figure out where this is coming from! It is hard to pinpoint because of my rice muffler but I looked under the hood today while the engine was on and noticed there is a ground wire by the #2 injector that was not connected? So I just touched it and moved it off the engine and the motor shut off! I just had the rear maifold replaced would they remove this ground to do this? I have no check engine light or anything and I have never had it come on since I had the car. If anyone knows anything please help a brotha out, this noise is killing me. it reminds me of driving on the highway with just the rear windows down but the drive is horrible, almost like it wants to bog down but it wont and the rpm seem to be a little higher than normal. Thanks guys Replys: definitely connect that ground back up. those are the ignition coil and injector ground leads. could very well be the problem. nm Matt (93SE) 11:50:04 10/06/2003 (0)
