Im trying to find the neg battery cable for my 95 F350 with 5.8. I tried to use 2 seperate ones caus it goes from battery to frame then block. It still doesnt seem to be working. This is the Motorcraft part number WC8980, none of the web sites have any pics, and the Ford dealer by my house just went out. If anyone knows if this is indeed the one i am looking for that would be great. If not i got to drive 1hr to closest dealer. Or i could call humm.

 

Buy some cable and ends and make one.... I would avoid the bolt on ends though the tend to invite corrosion. Solder on or crimp on if you can.

 

I do have it that way now, but I am gettin a slow start. When I redid cable about a month ago it was fine. Then today it started slow cranking again. New bat and 3G alt installed.

 

If you have good connections that shouldn't be your problem. Maybe you have a starter going south on you..... Just a thought.

 

Does it sit any longer than usual when you have the problem with slow starts? If so you may want to check for a minor draw.

 

it should not go bad in a month.

maybe starter.

 

New started also. When I went to replace pos battery cable the lug broke off starter selonid. No it usually doesnt sit for long peroids. I have good connections. Ill ck and see if they came loose tomorrow as I was working on headers the other day. Might have hit wire or something.

 

Good luck, let us know what you find.

 

Does anyone still know if that is the battery cable with the ground lug 1/2 way down?

 

Part of my 2 peice calble. The one that went from block to frame. One eyelet pulled out. And the stud on the engine was loose. Went to parts store and got new peice. And used a bolt instead of stud. Alt is charging at 14.5 vs 13.3. Head unit has nice volt guage in it.
