   Hey all, was fizing my grill the other day and noticed this lead hanging off the top of the other cables connected to the engine. Does anyone know what it is? I can't see where it connects to anywhere.

   It is a supressor, stops radio picking up interference from alternator/igntion system. Not needed really. Looks like the metal lug has snapped of hence it is just flopping around.

   Had the spark plugs changed last year but I thought I'd have noticed it flapping about.
