One final question on this hard starting issue. As I mentioned, I completely cleaned the ground strap connections, which were dirty, and suspect that will clear up the issue. My question is, the original strap is in one piece, not frayed, but does look old. Can age alone increase the resistance on an intact braided wire? If so, anyone know where I can get a new one?

As long as the contact points are clean, outside patina will not affect function unless you have some severe corrosion or physical damage.
