My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

How to ground spark plug wire

13 years ago

I need to replace the belt on my self-propelled mower. This requires removing the blade. The owner's manual says I should first "Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground it against the engine." I'd like to keep all my fingers so could someone explain how to ground the wire against the engine?

Thanks.
