I had the same problem
What I came up with was attching it with a fuel line clamp.
The clamps came in a box of 3 and cost me about $3.00 for all of them,

Are you guys telling me that that jumper post actually comes off? What did you do just put a bigger ring terminal on the end?

I hadn't even considered the option till I read this post.

Where the hell were you guys 6 months ago when I put mine in
