After fully charging both batteries on my 1973 911T and re-installing them in my car, I was unable to start the car up. I did a voltage check on each battery, and received a reading of 10.57 volts(is this normal? The charger gave me a green light indicating a full charge) at the positive terminal of each battery. I then performed a voltage check on the "hot" connection to the starter motor(which is directly connected to the positive terminal of the left front battery) and received a reading of 7.57 volts. This appears to be a sign of a bad direct wire between the battery and the starter. My question then is, what gauge wire runs directly from the battery to the starter? It appears to be bigger than 8 gauge to me, possibly 6 or 4 gauge. Could someone please tell me what size this wire is? Thanks a lot.
