Just finishing off rewiring my engine and there's a wire which I can't remember where it went.

It's one of the first wires on the loom, unlabelled, thick and terminated with a ring connector. Looks almost like a power feed.

Any ideas.

Earth wire
Goes under the head of the topmost bell housing to engine bolt (sorry! its a bit late unless you can get that one undone with everything in-situ)

Presumably I could earth that off one of the starter motor to bell housing bolts. I'm really starting to hate this car.... It's kicking and screaming and determined not to let me run it.

Any clean bolt but would not put it close to a sensor

Have put it on the starter motor bolt as its a couple of cm's from its original location. Once I've located my cam cover gasket we'll have lift off.
