something wierd under the engine!

tone loc · 07-30-2006, 06:16 AM

I just bought my car today and while was looking under the hood i noticed that there was this thing being held up my a rope. It looked a little out of place. If someone can help that would be great. if you want pics let me know.

I think rope is a high-tech light weight racing component.

anyway its right between the fan and front bumper and it looks like the rope is holding up a piece of metal (not the trans)
