The cable or wire that leads from battery to the starter on a 94 civic. believe it leads other places just woke up and have yet to look at it. but its not called the "starter ground wire" cause the cable in my car is thicker and alot longer than what they have at all auto stores. Anyone know who carrys it or where to find what it is called to be able to locate the part? I am wanting a new one but looking like a junkyard might be the only place to find the thing :rant:

i did check them... all were not the same gauge and which i do not know number gauge just that they were WAY off... they said if i take it off they can get it. but its welded to other cables that connect to the battery so i cant get it off. :(

pep boys and napa had the same part... a very thin wire with two bolt holes on both ends and was about 7 inches long... yeah definately not what i am looking for cause its further than that just from starter to battery.

about to go take a picture of what it is...

nope, but i fixed it iwthout figuring out what it is. i took all wires apart, got the corrosion from the old battery off the connector and flipped the connections and it started right up without how i used... thanks everyone for trying to help... still can figure out what its called though ;)
