what do these 2 wires go to? my only idea was the AIR pump which was deleted. this is drivers side front of the engine, you can see the coil

my ground strap is frayed but not cut, i'd imagine its still working just fine tho?

Those look to be ground wires if I'm not mistaken. There should be three different ring terminals that ground out through the stud/bolt. now that you mention that... there was 2 extra rings on that stud when i replaced the coil, it made me wonder a little. ill reattach them
Should be replaced. I have some 8 guage ground wire around here somewhere is that overkill enough?

Forgot to mention the one of the three is the ground strap. You can do 8 gauge if you want, but that seems a bit cumbersome. Grand straps can be had for cheap.

well i pulled the ground strap off and its not frayed it just had crap on it and looked frayed from where i was standing. It is showing quite a bit of corrosion tho so i think im going to go ahead and replace it, i picked up some 10 gauge wire and i will wire that in this week sometime but i doubt it's going to solve my issue with the aldl port
