Default Replacing ground wire on valve cover????

What gauge wire should you use to replace the nasty rust colored wire on the valve cover, also what kind of ends....I know its a worthless question but...nice day=clean engine bay.

Soak the wire in a 50/50 mix of muratic acid and water for like 10 minutes. It'll be shining like new.

Remember to pour the acid in the water, don't pour the water into acid.

PS- You can also use this for your tranny ground, valve cover nuts, etc. Works great.
