Enigine to Ground straps

2 posts in this topic

Posted (edited)

I installed my 618 on the kfiv today. Is there a "best" lug to install the engine-to-ground strap? I noticed the starter was ground strapped to the housing and the housing is bolted to the case, so for the heavy starter current to flow, would any case bolt work? I suppose i would(should) have attached it to one of the 2 lugs holding the starter to the housing, but now i cannot get to them without pulling the engine again.

Thanks

My Battery is mounted on the firewall on my Skyraider so I ran a ground directly to the starter and from there directly to the solonoid base and another one to one of the housing bolts.Im a firm believer in plenty of grounds,a bad ground can cause other problems.Randy
