Im sure its just coming from your engine..Your hands have got oily spots on the headers/etc...It will stop after a few minutes or so..

Cody,
It was actually from the ABS unit. The reason is, I forgot a ground and some current was trying to ground through the ABS unit. Not exactly what I had in mind!!

No worrys now. It started.

Consider this thread locked. I'll leave it open so people can learn from my mistakes.
