thanks for the link! this seems immensely useful, although like you, im having trouble reading it. its pretty small for all of what they have packed in there.

im just going to try connecting my two loose grounds first, but i really wanted to see if anyone could just say 'yeah thats it!' or 'no, that has nothing to do with it'.

EDIT: sorry for not listing my car specs better. im so used to car forums where it says it right under your user name. i have a may '88 NA supra with a manual transmission.
