02 Wrx running problem
So i got the clutch in after like 3 days of work and now the car will not stay running. Cranks and starts great but dies after a second or two.
-battery is great
-Starter works fine
-Nothing is wrong with the clutch, will start it in gear with the clutch petal in
-Gauge and clock Lights dim when i press on the brake
-Fuel gauge registers a full tank at half
-18ish gauge ground wire undone on bolting into the firewall is undone (IDK where that goes)
The only thing i can think of is the big 6 gauge ground under the intercooler grounding to the bell housing. When i poked that the car wont crank at all. Plus thats the only bolt my friend did in the entire car LOL.
Thanks

Well i have seen 4 ground wires. One on the starter that grounds to the belhousing, one on the firewall between the driver and the passenger, one on the driver fender coming off the battery, and the battery if that counts. The on on the firewall is disconected and the one on the starter is loose (im pretty sure). Ill try the one on the starter today.
