Previous owner went for like a 8mm cable to a 10-12 mm cable and soldered at a join about 18 inches from solenoid. Will attach pic. – Mark Jackson Nov 27 '20 at 11:56

1Is it the 8mm cable that is burning? – HandyHowie Nov 27 '20 at 12:54

Yes the 8 mm is the one that has melted through – Mark Jackson Nov 27 '20 at 22:37

If the 8mm cables are original, it would suggest to me that the starter is faulty and is drawing too much current. – HandyHowie Nov 28 '20 at 09:04

No the original cable is the larger of the 2 – Mark Jackson Nov 29 '20 at 11:53
