There is a ground wire that goes to the metal shield on the outside of the
distributor cap.  Maybe somebody has discarded the shield?

Subject:    What is this connector for?

Just below distributor cap, on the right side of the distributor itself I
have what appears to be a "prong" that would accept a spade type connector.
This is on my '85 1.9L. Any ideas? Another grounding site perhaps?
Vince
