Remove this connection last and you won't have any problems. Doubly so with a 126 chassis, since the ground is on the "large" connector and a trace on the speedo PC board is what provides the ground connection to the clock. Let it contact the metal back of a clock on a 126 and you will see sparks, and the fuse that blows is the trace on the PC board, leaving you with a non-functioning speedo, among other things. Don't ask how I know! -j.
