I have tightened the crap out of the 10 mm nut till it won't tighten anymore and I can still twist the terminal connector back and forth..it won't lift off but doesn't get rock solid like the positive terminal does...
I haven't taken it off to try and see exactly how it works and before I did I thought I'd see if anyone here has experienced the same thing and how they fixed it.. or is it just time for new improved cables, or new ends? Thanks
My terminal connector is like this one minus the corrosion...

I have the same problem. I think the nut loses its taper if it's torque spec is exceeded. Somewhere I have the service manual and I'd look it up, if I could find the book.....
