Reply to "Ground Straps"

noreasterMember

I've added grounds at many spots on the cabin/chassis wiring harness, but grounds related to the starter are as designed, through clean metal (starter flange/bell housing/transmission housing/ground strap/frame)connected with clean tight fasteners.
I tend to believe that improvements noted after adding any other grounding means you have missed a compromised existing connection somewhere else.
Starting with the best, the most conductive metals are silver, copper, gold and aluminium. Steel is far down on the list. I don't worry about current looking for a path through the transmission bearings and gears when the easy path is through the aluminium housing.
Keep your connections clean and tight.
