I know this may not be your problem, but I had some problems with my starter and I started thinking it was either the battery or the ground straps.. Eventually, I narrowed my problem to timing issues.

Subject: Engine bay earth straps
I realise this is incredibly lazy but im going to ask anyway
My starter is turning real slow and the battery is good so its either a dieing starter or poor earth. Its started happening in about the last 3 weeks.
So the question is
Where should the earth straps be in the engine bay on a 8v?
I would look now but a) its dark outside b) the missus is about 10 miles away in the car and c) i cant find my Bentley since i moved house last month
