    Does anybody have a diagram or picture of the grounding locations in the engine bay for a 1st gen 2.7? I've seen some pictures floating around but I think they're from later years (2000ish), and the locations might be different. have a 1996 for reference.

    So EA is the ground from battery to fender, EB I'm assuming is battery to engine block. The other two I have no idea. EF to the distributor? EC I have no idea

    I'm pretty sure on my diagram that is EB is off the engine harness....
    its the ground needed for everything on that side of the head.

    The neg post to engine block is a totally separate deal...
