96 civic.

i don’t see anything grounded near the thermo. Am I missing something?

all stock by the way.

 

There should be a ground on the thermostat housing. I don't really see that one from the pictures.

 

I didn’t see one either. No place for one when I’m looking.

 

It depends on the Civic trim. Some Civics have ground G101 under the air filter housing.

 

I have an LX, and there IS a ground under the air box. The filter housing would be under the intake and I haven’t looked there.

Car DOES start and run. Tho I do have an intermittent problem with the fuel pump priming and main relay clicking.

 

The air box is the air filter housing. So, that is ground G101.

 

so I’d need to take off the top portion of the filter housing or the entire piece going into the intake?

i have the type of intake where the filter mounts on top.

 

There is nothing to take off, if you see that ground is there and secured.

 

I’ll have to check it out tomorrow, no light right now. Would it be a chassis to manifold type ground?

 

No, the engine harness would be connected to that location.
