just fitting the loom on the hatch's engine...bit confused when i come to the starter.

Theres the little spade...no problem.

but then there is the big chunky spade coming out the main loom that fits over the threaded post on the solenoid with a 14mm nut...and then there is also the same sized spade coming direct from the positive battery terminal.

Do these both go on that same threaded post on the solenoid?

Cheers

that big chunky one coming out of the loom completes the charging circuit, it originates from the Alt.

Its only because I was trying to describe it to stan and he said he only had a spade from the main loom onto the starter, not a second direct from the battery?
