And if the battery is in the boot, run a positive and a negative to the battery, dont just earth the battery in the boot and use the chassis as a return, this is a no-no.

Can I ask why? I'm using a positive cable only (dunno what gauge but it's the thickest cable I could find) and a chassis return. It's been like this for over a year and I haven't had any problems yet. The starter motor has never struggled to turn the engine over that's for sure.



Yes manufactures have done this since the beginning of cars on the road ?

There are only a few exceptions to this i have seen .
Lotus elise
Ferrari f360
Honda Nsx
Audi a6
All Alloy bodied car ? which Toyota has a alloy body ?
