got a weird one for you all. just completed a subframe & engine rebuild & putting some miles on the motor. i notice that my oil press & other gauges seem to "flicker" at random. i didnt hook up a ground strap from the eng to frame/firewall, could that be the problem?
heres a really weird thing too, when i push the clutch pedal down it stops the flickering & makes the headlights & interior lights get brighter. right when the throwout bearing makes contach with the press plate "fingers" it stops the flickering, kind of like it is making a ground when it engages the pressure plate & stoping the flickering. nothing is connected to the clutch, i removed reverse light switch etc.
i will try to hook up another ground, but cant figure out what is causing the flickering & why the clutch effects it. where should the ground be hooked to from the eng??
PLEASE HELP!!!
