Hi,
I recently changed to a new battery and now the black(negative?) battery cable is too loose on its connection to the new battery itself. It often shakes itself loose after a few days of driving and I'd need a jump to start up the car. It gets really annoying, anybody have any suggestions? Can I just replace the battery cable itself with something from Auto Zone or PepBoys? I think that the cable itself can be removed from the chasis in the battery compartment.

 

yeah you will need to use a battery shim, they are available at any auto parts store by the battery cables and accessories. They fit right over the posts.
