i thought it was just some sort of a cheezy ground or something and pops on the bolt that holds on the fuel rail am i wrong???? there really is nowhere else it fits besides the valve cover stud and i know it doesnt go there

it goes on the back fuel rail stud on the drivers side of course. If you look at the back stud that bolts the back of the rail to the intake, that boot goes over that stud.

They're right, it goes on the valve bolt stud. It's just a ground.

what does it ground though??? would it ground the fuel system, the cop's, or what its a puny ground so i doubt it would ground anything of significance
