Starter Install
Hey guys,
So I'm installing a new starter and I'm not sure which connection is the positive. I know, very amature. Is it the top one, or the bottom one(has a fat exposed wire connected to the starter). Think I've got everything else figured out. Thanks!

Your power wire should have a double connection, in that your cable end should connect to both posts.
