Word to the wise though, when using baking soda to clean the terminals remove all hardware cause that chit will gum up and seize the bolt/nut that holds the terminal. I got way lucky and was able to remove the nut but I spent the next 30 mins with an xacto cleaning out the threads of the bolt and nut.



My fingers are crossed but I won't know until tomorrow when I get to work (where I had to leave my car) whether or not this fixes it. Just incase, and because I had nothing else better to do, I picked up a CPS too LOL!
