    It's a lot easier to fix the bad earthing problem. When ever your in an engine bay and come across a grounding take 5 minutes to undo it file sand the contacts . I use a die grinder to clean the grounding point and a file fro the terminal. bolt back together spray over it with paint.

    Would you connect the new earth straps from the battery? Sound like a good idea, I also have some spare cable at home.

    Yes from battery to block and Battery to chassis picking up any existing bolt holes I can find.
    sand them back to bare metal fit and spray with terminal spray.

    G'day Doggy,
    dunno much about volty stuff but am wondering why you'd bother.
    If you had an electrical fault, you'd need to sort it, earth or anything else.
    If you didn't, then a good earth can't be made more gooderer, can it? Suspect it's one of those things which if working perfectly, can't be inproved.
    Still, if it keeps you off the streets and out of the wifes hair it's worth trying.
    Cheers
    Col
