Darek Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I just noticed that theare are two missing screws in engine body. Is it normal or maybe previous owner did some repair? Here is a foto: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I also have nothing in those screw holes. I'd say it's normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nunya Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 bracket to attach piston pull back springs (for quicker revs) is missing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devonianwalk Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Huh? Mine has a black box attached there that says "Hitachi" and "chikmagnet". I think it's broken though, all it attracts is mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amfq120 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 On the driver's side of the block there is a little tab with a hole in it that I used to attach my block ground to with a brass nut/bolt and 4 gauge wire to it then to the firewall. Helped with window motor speed, light brightness too. I also noticed those holes when I was searching for a good ground location. Mine are open as well, obviously.

WOT Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I would always use stainless on exterior nuts/bolts, you grounded to the firewall?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arista5 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Huh? Mine has a black box attached there that says "Hitachi" and "chikmagnet". I think it's broken though, all it attracts is mud. they must have changed over the years.. my 04 has a Johnson Rod connected in that spot. previous years have had both a Flux Capacitor, Kuhneutson Valves, and Adjustable Power-bands.

Darek Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 What is missing? bracket to attach piston pull back springs (for quicker revs) is missing... So, the purpose of this holes is to use them as a ground point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 There is nothing missing, the replies that make no sense are just people joking around. These screw holes can be used as a ground, but there is nothing there from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesRich Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Those holes are for different mounting options in different vehicles. Your good. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOT Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I actually glanced at these holes today while under the hood and my car does have something in those holes. It was a bracket for a hardpipe that ran across the front of the engine, I dont think I followed it to find out what the pipe came/went from anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOT Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I lied, the hardpipe is at the bottom of your picture. These holes must be hidden under the engine cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I was able to see the holes without taking off the engine cover. Perhaps you were looking in the wrong place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOT Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Well my engine cover isnt factory and does cover more, or Im a blind idiot. Both possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
