    Okay. I'll cut straight to the point. What is the name of the wire that sits in between the coil packs on a 2RZ? Trying to find a replacement piece for it.20231116_100306.jpg 20231116_232333.jpg

    Hmmmm
    I went out to my 96 2RZ
    From your pix
    I see dipstick tube/fan clutch/belt
    Gotta think that is passenger side front corner of your engine
    But I have a distributor not a cover plate
    In that area

    Am I losing my mind?IMG_3660.jpg

    I’m not afraid of being wrong
    More about ‘learning something’

    OP knows where the wire goes.
    But his is almost cut in two.
    It’s a grounds wire.

    Looks like it's the grounds at Ground Point EF, they ground the ignition coils and igniters.
    Just crimp a new eylet on it and bolt it back on.

    Yes, it sits between the coils. Not certain on what it is though. Let alone what it's called.

    Ok Ok
    So I’m assuming 99 and 96 2RZ’s different?
    Sorry.

    Thank you to all that replied and sent me ideas on how to get it to work. Manged to rig something up and it works. Honestly thought it wouldn't. But it did.

    Or just, cut the o part of a connector/crimp off and use it as a washer. Heh.
