Give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will promptly forget that he once did not know, and proceed to call anyone who asks, a n00b and flame them on the boards for being stupid. -
battery cables
hey bernie i have had some nerve racking experiences with battery cables. in this first pic do you see how the wire is molded into the terminal i have seen these fail alot while showing no signs of it being bad.
in the second pic i have also seen these fail showing no signs af being bad.
the best way to deal with this is to make new ends if you have enough cable. the reason i say this is i have also bought ones that were bad or failed soon after i installed them. the best way to insure against this is to make your ends if theres enough cable.Attached FilesMy wife and I.sigpicComment

Some folks got a good example of Interstate over the weekend... while I had the stereo bumpin' and lights flashin', a few times different people asked "isn't that gonna kill your battery?" or "shouldn't you start it?" By the time I got around to starting it up, it started without missing a beat, you never would have guessed it had been powering a music/light show for an hour or more...
And this battery is at least 4 years old and has been completely drained by other past moronic means a few times... and watch it be dead later since Ive posted this

Word. Left my domelight on for 10 hours while I had the tailgate open. I was working on someone's car and parked mine in front of it for easy access to tools. Left for a parts run, ended up going all over town, came back and found I'd left it open, but the bastard started right up without even hesitating.91 Mercury CP, Lopo 302, AOD, 3.08LSD. 3g upgrade, Moog wagon coils up front, cc819s in the back.
