Re: Electrical Question...
Yes...that's what happens. There is also a strong spark when you reconnect the positive cable to the battery terminal. I notice a little spark with the other cars, but this is much stronger. Something must be on our shorting out somewhere....everything works fine on the car...no problems

Re: Electrical Question...
1st of all never take the pos. cable loose from a battery 1st. If you take the ground loose 1st and your wrench hits ground there is no sparks. If you take the pos. loose 1st and hit ground you have a arc welder.
Anything that stores voltage (condensor, possible radio capistors etc.) can cause a spark as you mentioned. Anything drawing any voltage at all (alternator, clock etc) can cause a spark when connecting battery back.
