Well I am in a bit of a pickle now. I'm now deployed in Qatar and the cub is having problems again. It sounds like it is doing the same thing it did before through video. I'm going to see if she can take some jumper cables and jump the battery to the engine and try that. She did say the ground wire was real warm when I told her to try and wiggle the cables. Before I just took all the connections apart and cleaned wire wheeled and tapped holes. I put diametric compound on everything when reapplying. All I can think of is the cables themselves are corroded inside or have bad terminal connections. The ones at the battery is suspected good cause I soldered new terminals on them. If it's he ground again I would like to do a strait shot to the engine from the battery and ground the chassis separate. Just gonna be a bit involved for my wife to deal with finding wires and wrenching w 2 babies. She is very handy with tools though. What suggestions do y'all have. Anyone know off hand how long of a cable I would need for certain to get from the battery to the starter and have it ran nice?
