[DML] re: battery ground lug (was sudden death)



How did you deal with this? I had a real problem recently when that 
bolt was broken off (prior owner, ground was then relocated). It was 
essentially impossible to get out the remaining piece of the bolt (no 
where to get a drill in there). Did you get lucky and have it back 
out with the nut? 

It's common for this to happen because it's not obvious that there is 
a backup nut to the welded nut. You go to loosen it and snap the bolt 
head.

so i wound up cleaning that area really well and replaced the bolt 
and nut (this area was very dirty - i missed it last time i cleaned 
all my grounds - probably never been serviced by P.O's either)
