EdCherry 34 1 Cars Posted December 1, 2008 Ok, in the mission to get the car from non-starting to starting I thought I might as well make my life a bit easier and replace cables now. Since im gonna wire in a master switch and the starter/alt and negative cables have seen better days id just like some info on what size to go for on the following: Alternator to Starter Alternator to Battery Terminal Earth from Gearbox to Chassis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miles 331 1 Cars Posted December 1, 2008 16mm for the starter, 10mm for the Alt. Get some good ring crimps and crimpers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rom 0 Posted December 1, 2008 Thats what i used when i redid all my powers and earths. Crimpers to crimp that kind of size cost a fortune. I borrowed a set from a Auto Electrics place next to my work. If memory serves me, i think its 8mm ring terminals. Easy enough to measure though to check.
