Subject:Positive Cable End
From:John Reynolds

My positive cable at at the starter end is showing corrosion and I have hard starting. �I'm thinking trying to cut the last 1-2" off and soldering a new copper lug on.
The only one I found is closed on the end - see picture here:�http://www.flickr.com/photos/transporterjr/6987930200/in/photostream�I don't know if I this style is good, as I figured an open end one could be soldered from both sides. �Any advice? - really could use some. �Also, cutting the 4/0 cable in place - does a Dremel tool with cut-off saw make sense?
Happy trails,John
