Engine earth strap on a mini

#1 Post by tinweevil »

Where the hell is it hidden? Or where should it be? Mrs Weevils '76 1000 auto is hard to start at the moment, whack a jump lead 'tween engine and body and it starts fine. I've searched everywhere I can see and cannot find any sign of an earth strap. If there is one hiding I'd rather replace it than just slap another on somewhere obvious.

Cheers

Cheers George, I'll have another check around that area and add one there if I still can't find it.
