Ferrari Mailing List: solved: electrical problem on '81 308 GTSi

[Michel Savard (mysavard]

Much ado about nothing.
 
It turns out that the wire that was causing the engine to stutter every
time I hit a bump was the big green wire that runs beside the oil vapour
separator (tav 17 in parts manual). It runs beside the tube from oil
vapour separator (bottom tube). I remembered touching it a few weeks ago
because I felt it was squeezed in place on the engine. I decided to go
under the car and I could clearly see the little copper (?) wires
through the green band. I taped it over with green electrical tape. Mind
you, only one hand can be used to tape it. You need good finger
dexterity to tape something with only one hand.
 
Question: What is that big green wire ? I can’t see where it comes from
nor where it’s going. I can’t find it in my owner’s manual or parts
manual.
