    Ground strap location

    I had them on really lightly before, was too worried about not over torquing. They were working loose from just braking on hitting a little bump. I just got them good and secure

    After I cranked the terminal bolts down much tighter, this thing is running perfect. This is my first time dealing with side post, I hate them lol.

    Ground strap location

    I do have two positive batter cables. One goes to the starter and the other to the fuse box. There was not a spacer in between them. Would a copper washer work? I have an assortment of them on hand

    Oh I put in two brand new battery cables. I think the terminals were a little loose. Thank you

    Got the old battery cables out and the new ones in. She fired right up. I did suddenly stall after about a half mile. Put the check battery light on and wouldn't turn the starter. I wiggled the battery cable and it gave a weak start and drove home no problems. I'll tighten the battery cable...

    Do you know where the ground coming off the starter runs to? I'm about to replace the battery cables, and noticed there was one on the bolt the positive battery cable runs to. Thanks

    I got that one done, and the frame to firewall ground it shares a bolt with. I'm about to change my battery cables and am not sure where the ground off the starter is running to. You've been a big help

    Ground strap location

    So I finally got around to the ground straps. Did a through job of cleaning all the contacts. Charged my battery up. It did nothing. I'm getting no power to ignition, windows, etc. Any thoughts as to what I should check tomorrow? I'm definitely going to start with the fuse box

    There are two. The frame to body is apparent. Just trying to figure where the other ends. Thank you

    Hello. I'm having an issue tracking where the end of this ground strap is going to. It's running from the frame to somewhere up and behind the engine. I'm tackling the job tomorrow.
