I think you got a solid diagnosis and a good fix.  To make sure,
ground the spark coil secondary (high-voltage) wire and get someone
to crank while you wiggle the wires at the battery.  If there's a
problem with the wire terminations that should find it -- but I think
you're good now.


Yours,
David
