BuddyJesus: The best way to look for the ground wire to the exhaust bearing is to look right behind the engine, you'll see a small pipe. Follow it to the secondary muffler bearing, and it'll be right in front of it. There should be a rainbow wire that looks like a unicorn's horn protruding from it, follow that wire and ground it.

and a bolt with a spacer is supposed to ground it? I just don't remember unscrewing anything under the intake. I'm having trouble finding a pic

Yeah, the 8 on it stands for 8-gauge wires. It's underneath the intake near the coils.

Alright, I'm starting to feel bad...

There's no such thing as an exhaust bearing.

There's no such thing as a secondary muffler bearing.

There's no such thing as a unicorn.

That bolt is probably something that's not really needed, probably from the intake tray or something.

Do you have an aftermarket intake?

No, and after extensive googling, I became suspicious, however I was going to take apart my intake tomorrow and if I found out you were lying I would hunt you down and hit you with the catalytic converter that has been sitting in my room.

I'm guessing that the screw you have is gold (zinc plated). If so then it goes some where around the intake area.

I guess, I'm just hoping it's nothing major.. It's like brass color.. it's about an inch long and just a bolt and a spacer.
