Got to do some checking of the earth straps on my '96 1.9TD-Can anyone say how many there are and any where abouts they are?

There should be one from the negative battery terminal to the gearbox, and one from the negative terminal to the body, possibly bolted to the nearside wing.
Don't be fooled if they don't look like 'straps', they're probably insulated cables.
