The terminal end (loop type)of my alternator cable broke and I find
that after removing the broken end, the cable is to short to reach the
alternator connection post or bolt. Apparently at some time n the past,
this fix had been done before by the PO, taking off a bit of cable in
the process. Now with another fix necessary, the cable is just a
fraction short - but for the life of me, I can't get any more slack out
of the cable to make new fittings work. It's never a good idea to have a
power cable of any sort stretched to the max - they need some slack to
accommodate vibration. Short of having to R&R that heavy wire - anyone
have any suggestions as to how to deal with this.?

Thanks,

John
