80 series left side engine ground help! (4 Viewers)

[chuckc32]

Morning all!
I am trying to find the proper ground location for this strap below. Appears to be connected to the oil pressure and knock sensor harness. Mine was incorrectly connected to the to one of the fuel filter mount on the bottom of intake! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Photo is looking up from bottom. I have found a diagram that shows maybe “engine hanger” but I’m not sure that’s the proper spot for this one.

That connects to the lower intake manifold on the side facing the firewall. it's a tight squeeze but doable. BTW that's oil level, not pressure.

Thank you! I’ve been finding all sorts of weird stuff done to this 96 lx, trying to get it all sorted back out and I could not for the life of me figure out where that belonged!!

...pressure's on the passenger side.

Thank you for the help gents. Factory fuel filter in, what ever this was, out.

hah... Man, I hear that. 30 years worth of hands of varying skill levels really mixes stuff up.

Yep. Had to basically start from scratch on the fuel filter, new lines, bolts, everything from fuel rail to hard line. But it’ll be nice to not have to worry about it for a long time.

Also if anyone wants to see a 30 year old fuel sender- here ya go. I was hoping it would be the unit itself and not a wire issue. Fuel light would pop during braking and turns. Behaving like the sensor was flopping around in tank. It seems it was.

Luckily new fuel level senders (83320-69055) and the fuel pump bracket (23206-66900) are still available.

Just got both installed just now. Thankfully my local Toyota dealer could get them to me next day. Fired up and leak free! We will see tomorrow if the light issue is fixed
