This is the wire I wondered if it was a ground or a sensor..We'll I guess not .I don't know how to get an http:/ URL. for my photo. But it is just above where the manifold bolts to the front exhust pipe. If I can figure it out I will send this one and one of the distributor ground wire. . |

Is that a picture saved on your computer or what. I attempted to go to the address and it doesn't pull anything up. You have to use a picture hosting site and use the link from the site to get it to show up. If you used something like drop box, I haven't found a way to make those links work either. |

What you are describing on the exhaust manifold is the O2 sensor. |

It is a picture on my smart phone. I downloaded photo bucket and up loaded the photo to it took the https:// address from that site and typed it into the geo metro forums pop up window that says HTTPS:// Adress here. Maybe it just won't work because I use a phone for all this . As I have no desktop computer. |

I can do a post from my phone, bit it's kinda a pain. When working up a post,click the preview button to confirm everything is showing up the way you want. When using a photobucket account, click the share button and you want the IMG link if I remember correctly. |

No that was a ground wire from the coil to the engine block , it bolted to a bolt next to the distributor but not actually the bolts that tighten the the distributor adjustment. |

Cool. It normally goes on one of the bolts at the distributor base to the engine block. Is that wire still getting hot? |
