Best way to remove starter 318 newbie question 67 cuda

If you take the ground (or the positive for that matter) off the battery, there will be no power to anything.
Disconnect ONE of the battery clamp leads and the car is dead electrically.
The ground clamp is the one disconnected usually in case the wrench slips and will cause sparking, which is not good around a battery that emits hydrogen gas as a byproduct of charging.
Think about it.

if you leave the pos on at the battery,as stated before,the pos potential is still at the starter and a wrench or whatever can ground it and spark/weld/scare the hell out of a person. Do it your way,and good luck. I'll do it the way I've done for almost 50 years.
