Hi, Took out battery 3--4 months ago, to do some work, Got it done. This is a TO-30 that had been converted to 12 volt.
Now my problem is I don"t remember how to hook up battery. Can anyone tell me if it should be positive or negative ground ?
Thanks,
Ron (Wi)

Ron, I know what you mean... I am constantly getting flipped around on +/- between my cars and the TE.... I now have FWD and arrows drawn on top of all my batteries. So I install them correctly. Another tip could be to put a wrap of electrial tape on the negative lead and if you have red tape put it on the Pos. lead. Thus they will correctly color coded.

But I guess you have already though of this too by now...

If she has been converted to 12 volt, 99% sure she is negative ground.
check short wire going from coil to side of distributer..... ....this is same as ground. Yours should be on the (-) terminal of coil.
