Anyone got any pics of the earth point (think behind the fuel tank) and the process of getting to it. Think I may have isolated my non charging problem.

FFG look at my wiki on body off tips.

See the tank removal bit, the earth should be the top left chassis mount behind the tank.
Its a 10 dome head cap screw.

Cheers Ant,
Hadn't spotted that.

Got any pics as I assume not all 4 are earth points. Can I just move the tank slightly to get access to the bolts as I just need to clean the earth point and hope that cures my draining problem.

FFG, you are probably right actually, disconnect the fuel sender wiring(after photo) and undo the tank strap mounts and you might be able to just lean it toward the rear of the car and get at the top left bolt.
