Finally found something that might explain why my sr won't start! There was a plug hiding around the back of the engine that connects to the head where the coilpack harness ground is and it's unplugged I tried looking but can't see anywhere it could plug in to. It's maybe 6" long and it's like a stainless steel braided thing with a 2 prong plug. Here's the pic.

Should be a spade terminal type of bracket thing on the firewall where that goes. That's the ground from your head to the chassis.

Weird I definitely do not have one but will be grounding that asap! I think that will solve my starting problem and I can finally fire up the beast thanks so much especially for the pic!

That little ground, is the cause of alot of no starting sr20's
not hooked up, getting hot, missing etc. I've seen it all.
