    Huge PROBLEM after the h22a swap in my 91 accord

    well the h22 is in my accord and everything is hooked up but all my electrical things are a mess.my car runs but its hard to get it started. when it does run i try to put it into gear but once i do it cuts off. when i hit the break pedal my temp gauge goes up and down, my rpm gauge does not work now, i turn my lights on but they dont work, my automatic seat belt motor is making a weird noise and they move real slow, cd player does not work no lights in the interior work, when i hit the blinker my gauges go up and down as the blinker goes. I think the problem is my grounds but i do not know where to start or how to fix it. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

      OKay what you need to do is check your harness that plugs into the sensors on the head its a pretty big piece how can you miss that. Move your cold air intake out of the way and the ground should be near thethermostat and just n between the distrubutor right below it . Its a small threaded hole that holds a 10mm screw.

        either a ground or your ELD system.

          check the one that connects close to the thermostat, the one by the valve cover, and there are some others.......
          rickyduckworth, how would an electrical connection melt your throttle cable?not doubting it just seems really odd to me and i'm curious.

            If I may ...

            A car's engine needs to be grounded to the chassis. If you don't have one, the electrical system will find one --- and whaddya know, it'll look for something that resembles a thick wire attached to the chassis.

            The throttle cable is like that --- it attaches to the engine on one end and the car's interior on the other.

            An auto shifter cable like that too --- it attaches to the chassis at the shifter end and the tranny at the other.

            You've already got a secure + connection at the starter, and without sufficient ground the throttle cable or auto shifter cable will start to act like a conduit for - back to the chassis.

            One small problem however --- those items aren't good grounds; the current now being forced through them will corrode and heat the cable, fusing it to the surrounding plastic sleeve, causing the cable not to move any more inside of the sleeve.
