Default Ground wire

What up guys I have a couple questions I couldn’t find in the FAQ about ground wires. Now I looked at the diagram from the FAQ here http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/i...cture_3362.jpg and I’m missing the bolt that goes from “ground wire A” into T3. I already have the one on the brace and I guess the other one must have rattled off at some point and I’ve been driving around without it for who knows how long. Here’s a picture for reference



Anybody know what size bolt i need and is it safe to just reattach back to the engine? Is it the same one connected to the front brace and can I just go look for it in the parts store? Thanks in advance

On the 5th gen (92-95), that ground wire goes from the body to the valve cover.

I'm not sure where they located the disconnected end on the 6th gen (96-00) vehicles.

In the future, please include the year, trim level, etc. for the car.

Since your car has power steering, the other end connects to the power steering pump bracket.

The bolt is Honda Part No.: 95701-06012-08. It is a M6 x 1.0 x 12mm flange bolt. 1.0 is the thread pitch. You can get an equivalent bolt at an auto parts store or hardware store. It is safe to reattach and should be reattached.
