Re: pos/neg

positive goes to the starter, negative goes to an engine ground.....so yes to the motor.

Actually, it will go to the starter solenoid. Not the starter itself, or the starter will run everytime you hook the battery up.

Re: pos/neg

More specifically, there are two large terminals on the starter solenoid. One of them has a connection that feeds the starter. The other is where the POS cable goes.,
