Was going to start cleaning the dirt out of the battery box tonight to get a new battery put in there tomorrow... I just realized there is no negative battery cable in there, huh... Previous owner must have taken it out with the battery i guess. Where is the negative cable supposed to be connected to the frame? I looked at the service manual for it and it doesn't clearly show where the cable goes to, i imagine a frame bolt or? I know i could ground it literally anywhere but i want to put it back like it should be. Thanks!

I just traded off my 84's or I'd send you a picture.

Someone will chime in soon.

Maybe try the search key?
Pictures of airbox or solenoid or something in that general area?

Some go from battery to engine case or mount with a jumper to the frame
but it would be nice to have it go where it belongs especially if it
mounts with another ground wire.

I have been searching for hours, i just can't find a picture that shows where it goes. I found some battery cables on ebay so i at least know what they look like, which gives some clue as to where they should route by length, but still not sure where.
