- Replace the Ground Strap and Hot side cables that attach to the
battery posts.
- Grease the connections with silicon spray or petroleum jelly.
- Loosen the starter and reseat it to get a good starter to block
continuity. (Opt.)
- Add a ground wire from the CASE of the Alt to the block.

Might try a Diesel starter and of course there is the larger battery
with more cranking power.
