Default Ground Locations for 85

Does anyone know where I can get a list of all the main ground locations on my 85? I'm having some weird problems where my lights flicker. I've had my alternator checked and all appears OK. I'd like to make sure all my grounds are fine too

Try paging Agent86, he's a nice guy and will post or email them to you. I believe he has them all on CD.

GM puts them in a lot of different places, but if this will help, one main ground junction several wires) is on the driver's side of the block. Lower area in front of the oil filter.

There's also a braided ground strap at that location that goes from the block to the chassis.

Someone else will have to post about the others.
