Subject:      Battery cable question
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The other day my 86' GL wouldn't turn over. Wound up getting a jump start. 1st time it has happened. Battery is 2 yrs old. My question is would the ground cable get quite warm to the touch during normal starting? Am I looking at replacing the battery cables to the starter? Next step is to clean all battery to starter connectors. Battery connections were very clean. Any ideas? Thanx to all...
