Still waiting on the answer to tightening a loose battery cable to a
battery post with a sheet metal screw (maybe more than one.


But if more time is requied, then how about tightening a loose battery
cable end by cutting a shim out of sodie pop can, wrapping it tightly
around the battery post, then hammering the cable end down over the
wrapping to make a snug fit.


I know it's possible, 'cuz i seen it done before.



but.... is it permissable?
