Default cables

Well after cleaning all connections cannot get issue to repeat. And that is
good, but now I question my spring clamp style cables. Believe my issue was
caused by poor gnd connection at block. She is now cranking very well even
eith my 750CA battery. Gues I never noticed how the cranking speed reduced
over time cause it was gradual. The only connection to have ANY sign of corrosion
was GND at passenger head lug. Also spring clamps feel weak as far a clamp pressure.
I squeezed them and they got better but I think I will make my own cables son.

Thanks for all they suggestions guys!!

Gerry
