An earth lead like this one carries the ground path from the starter motor back to the frame or engine casing, completing the circuit so the starter can draw current properly. If a starter is cranking slow, clicking, or not turning at all, a corroded or broken earth lead is one of the first cheap things to check before you start suspecting the motor or solenoid.
Our catalog record for this one is thin - a single listing tied to the 1975 model year in the Electric Start figure. Give the shop a call and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
