Guess he fingered it out!...lol...But seriously, if the car starts ok when cold, why would changing the battery cables help? If that were the problem, wouldn't it be all the time?Trust everyone once. Just be cautious of what may be lost.

The battery cables can develop internal corrosion just like on the battery post this will restrict the amount of energy flow through the cables and as they get hot from all of the electricity flowing through them it will increase the ohms of the wire reducing the amount of electricity that can pass through.

Ok...sounds reasonable. I also agree with you that it could be a bad battery. But I guess we will never know since the OP has gone AWOL. Originally Posted by aahx2011

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
