<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can anyone explain to me why my Diesel (Perkins
4-108) has a floating ground? I am just about to start to rewire the
controls and instrumentation, and realised that all of the senders, the starter
circuit, & the charging circuit all have additional wires creating a
Floating Ground. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Seems odd since there is a connection of the ground
circuit to the engine anyway. The very oddest is the ground lug on the starter
has a jumper to ground to the engine on a mounting bolt for the starter! What's
up with this?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
