I put on a ground kit and i lost fuel tank meter/ didnt start on the first try/ IC spray didnt work/ felt like i lost 50-100 HP and the windshield sprayers didnt work. they would just trickle out of shoot over the car. so i took off the ground kit and the problems all went away exept for the windshield sprayers. since i have only had my car for a whole 20 days i dont think i even used the sprayers before i put on the ground kit.
Any ideas?

Some of the times it works fine other times it doesnt work other times it washes the cars winsield behind me. I dont think it can be the motor if it car shoot 15 feet.
also if i go and tugg on the ground cable where it is conected to the terminl sometimes that will make a difference. I think i will mention this at my next oil change yay warrenty.!!! (never had a new car b4)

I remember you mentioned this last night. That is very strange, I have to admit. Who made the grounding kit? I would definitely keep it off and bring it up at your next servicing. Let them fix the problems, then bring the grounding kit to our next install fest, we'll make sure everything is kosher

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
