dun worry lar.. i think wun spark ah... de chains only resting on de floor mah.. no heavy pressure.. how to spark? :lol:

who knows ler... the friction between metal chain and the road very high mar... after dragging for some time, come out spark... :P

wah really put chain meh... dont lah... now ur car is grounded....any current will pass easily man.... it will burn ur electronics one... lighting strike also can burn man....

 

[ksgoh]

that's right....will give shocked easily if grounded....

 

[lawrencelyl]

anyway, i'm already satisfied with my grounding... no more electrostatic after i did grounding... :D

very neat job, you are talented to be foreman :)
i used to get static shock on my car, after grounded, no more already.

There are many ppl discussion where to ground and how to ground, should start talking about the effective of grounding.


1. awesome88 - smoother gear change, no more static shock, gear can tarik longer

2. lawrencelyl - no more static shock, head lamp brighter a bit? (maybe my imagination) and little bit better fuel consumption (maybe only...)

3. Acceleration is better, Response is good, Brighther lights, lesser air con Pull
get frm acfk forum..
but my car's grounding still feel nothing...

dont worry friends.... dont feel sad... the grounding will show effect for those old car that are poor grounded.... we do additional grounding to improve the grounding effect so there efficiency is better....:P

 

[mojotudam]

i read in an import mag that grounding near electrical items such as the distributor will reduce power. izzit true?

Grounding Post-Effect

1. awesome88 - smoother gear change, no more static shock, gear can tarik longer

3. jeheyr - Acceleration is better, Response is good, Brighther lights, lesser air con Pull get frm acfk forum.



BTW, saw eneos selling 5 point grounding kit for RM98. reasonable. Anyway, i find grounding works well on old car. My ex-iswara has rusted body, guess it must works fabouslously.

4. som 1's car- Acceleration is better than b4, save fuel(rm23 fr penang to kl), volt is more stable, illding more stable.....
