grounding question

I recently did the big three and I noticed on the neg to ground there was a bunch of corrosion from the battery on the screw and just the area around it. Should I maybe just drill a hole somewhere else nearby that doesn't have rust? Will it make a difference? I was also wondering if I should replace all the screws to help with the grounding. Would it make any difference?

well if there is rust, thats bad for a ground connection, get rid of the corrosion and if the screws are bad replace them. try some spray stuff on the spots that will neutralize the corrosion and you can remove it.
hope that helps.

Wiking if that is the point under the battery I did that. TripleGmax I did spray that red anti-corrosion stuff all over the points just in case. I like your name too, I call my car three g.
