It has two mounting places, but some slight adjustment may be necessary, good luck!

Years ago I had issues with the Napa version, thinking that was the best of the auto parts stores to pick from, it was the correct cable but didn't last long at all. Found a good used one and been using that ever since with no issues. For that reason if I ever need one again I'll try to find a good original GM version.

There are several grounds, generally I'd say the same ones used on all years of the G-body.
First is the primary, battery to engine ground, comes off the battery and attaches to the brackets for the AIR pump. If the AIR pump has been removed it should be reattached to the block somewhere in that area to the left of the water pump, front of the block. This is the largest wire, and most important for starting the engine. If the AIR system has been removed they may have attached to one of the water pump bolts. Those bolts corrode the threads from coolant over time. Not a good place to attach a ground wire.
Another is at the back of the driver's side cylinder head. It is a flat braided copper strap. Bolts to the back of the cyl head one end, other end is attached to the firewall via a sheetmetal screw. There may be two wires under that screw.
Another is a smaller ground wire the comes off the negative post of the battery and is attached to the fender near the battery.
There are several other used for individual circuit grounds. At the left side of the dash's bottom side is a screw that is used to hold the corner of the dash to the body. There will be several ring terminals under the head of that screw, they are grounds for several circuits. that screw will become loose over time.
At the thermostat housing there is a ground for the CCC computer system. It may or may not be there anymore if the CCC harness has been removed.
There are a few other ground points but those shouldn't cause your problem.
My guess would be the large ground from the battery to the engine is loose, corroded. Bob

Thank you Bob I appreciate it, I have to wait to tomorow to check because of the weather but I'll be sure to give those a look.
And I don't have the air pump or ccc. Anything emissions related is gone from the car.
