M52 Coil ground strap

so my Car's been acting up for the past two months ever since I had the engine done over. It cuts out while driving, Idle's low 5K and under, takes long to start.

Ive since replaced the Fuel pump, Fuel filter, spark plugs, intake boot(had a vacuum leak). Also had the injectors cleaned and tried a friends ECU.

With each of the above, it would seem as if the problem is solved only to disappoint when the car is warmed up.

so last night while looking for something in my toolbox, I came across a coil ground wire. I immediately checked under my valve cover to find that the F#*ckin Mach who did my engine did not attach this strap. # 10 below

Can anyone tell me where this goes on an ODB2? My other car M50B25 has two - one on the first coil and one on the last.

And - what are the implications of not having that strap on - could it be the cause of my problems?

Thanks
