Same fault you had slow start like if it had flat battery

Unfortunately no, but ill keep that extra ground as its good to have. I am thinking leaking valve cover gaskets and bad pcv may be issue now

I used this bolt to ground. Is this a good ground? Cable i got was too short and i found no other places in the engine without a gasket

Yes i know its negative but how does that help with starting? Is the negative linked to ground off the starter?

thanks

if you can please tell me how this help with starting if the two grounding points are not related to started or engine? its going from terminal lead to manifold bolt. unless the actual negative terminal lead its also linked to other grounds in the car? is that what it is? also what lenght wire and gauge do i need? 0/1 awg 2ft enough? can it go from negative to valve cover ground bolt instead because i have a v8 q7 and not sure if i have that manifold bolt you have there or may be at different location. i appreaciate your help and if you can answer those questions i will appreciate.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Now how does this help with starting? I know the manifold inlet does not make contact with starter. Now does the negative lead terminal for jump starting making contact in another place with starter?

hey michael, did you fix your issue? if yes how? am having same issue and have already replaced those parts you mentioned except the extra earth cable as i dont know which grounding points and i have v8 4.2 na version

hi did you solve your problem? i have same issue.

Hi i am having same issue can you provide a picture so that i can see your two grounding points? I want to do same to see if that helps with my slow start
