Negative wire position help please.
« on: September 21, 2023, 04:53:13 PM »
The heavy gauge black ground wire coming out of the enge goes??
 I have a heavy gauge black wire bolted to the big engine stud that goes to the battery negative lug.
 Does the other one I mention 🤔  go there to or elsewhere?
 Thanks

It goes to one of the terminals on the starter solenoid. The solenoid's other one goes to the (+) side of the battery.

 Yeah all makes sense now. The crap Clymer I have is useless.
 I double checked on the factory manual.
 Again thanks
