Re: Aluminum Fuel Cell Help

I just ran my ground back to the sender screw, and ran the main wire down my vent line. Here is a crappy pic but all I have right now, guess if you wanted to go all out you could use aluminum tubing and tack it to the side of the cell.

Re: Aluminum Fuel Cell Help

Nope, never saw a need for it, it's plastic, and the cell itself is grounded. Nice deal on the ones you bought.
