    93 surges and dies

    I got one from a dealer for about $45. If you are able, you can cut off the terminal, clean up the cable and replace just the terminal. The routing of the cable makes replacing it a little difficult. There is a clamp that holds the cable in place near the oil pan that I could never get to go...
