uhhh...what?

positive goes into the wiring harness

negative goes to the intake manifold or someplace else on the car if you didn't hook it up in the stock location.

if you hook it up backwards chances are you've friend EVERYTHING in the car.

See my sig for help with posting pics ... bt they must be "hosted" online somewhere.

Pics that you only have on your computer "locally" can be posted, but must be a smaller pic, and "attached" to a post. Only 1 pic at a time, using the "File Attachment" feature.

Pics and clear/congitive posts make helping much easier.
