as long as transmission or engine is earthed well to chassis and battery and body is earthed to both as well an earth at the starter is unimportant

I have to drop my down pipe to gain access, Id say a 200 is similar to a 19j. Its a 2 minute job , no biggie.
And to be fair its pretty self explanatory when you look at it.
 
Mine had earth issues so I fitted new lead from battery to chassis, another lead from battery straight to one of the starter mounting nuts/bolts and another strap from drivers side chassis to the engine itself, never been any issues since, was a slow starter and always felt like battery/starter was on its way out and as both of them were new.
 
i just put a strap on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oops wrong forum ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,now where"s delete :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::D
 
Sometimes the strap itself can lose integrity, I have a few on mine, tranny box to chassis, engine to chassis, bulkhead to chassis, battery to chassis, chassis to chassis.
