[Healeys] No start condition

[Bob Spidell]

re: "Can anyone tell me what gauge and length the cable is from the 
battery to the starter solenoid?"

Why not measure the old one?  It's a long run, I'd use #0 pr #1 gauge 
wire (the thicker the better).

re: "I will use the solder on type of connectors at both ends to try and 
eliminate corrosion inside the connectors."

We had to use an oxy-acetelene torch to get the solder to flow. Propane 
or (fake) 'MAPP' gas won't do it.
