We cleaned both terminals and tightened them. Seems to have done the trick. He said that there could be other ground connections to the frame as well - we just got lucky that ours was in an easily accessible place.

Probably not at all what is wrong with yours, but something else to check if everything else turns into a dead end.
Yeah, the Engine has a ground and the frame has a ground. Used to be the engine mounts were the ground to frame but long time ago when I was in my first car, the engine started but there was no dash lights to see the speedo. Got that fixed before my next speeding ticket.
