Earth connections - location please

Eventually found the problem it was the earth from the engine
to the body that was a bit rotted tried to take the bolt of that
goes on to the body behind the passenger side headlight and
it was seized and then snapped when I tried to get it of gave
it a clean up and attached to the engine mount and all is good now
Am going to get another earth strap to go to the engine to the body
Just to be on the safe side

Hi Gary,

Yes, that is the most common earth point that causes problems and the bolt often snaps (mine did too)
But as you say there are other bolts in that area that can be used to get a good earth when that happens.

Thanks for telling us the outcome, that is always helpful.
