odd....apparently i'm hot wiring my own car

well i just recently relocated the battery to the rear of the car, all wires were run with no problem everything ready to install just waiting for battery to finish charging. Well i put the battery in fully charged hook up the possitive terminal, then go to hook up the negative terminal and some sparks fly and the car starts tryin to turn over....... all this without keys in it. maybe i'm just retarded but i don't understand whats goin on there...... i checked to make sure it had a good ground and i didn't see where the possitive had grounded out anywhere...... any input would be very much appreciated........ many thanks,
chris

Not sure what all is involved in the relocation but it sounds like you have the starter wires crossed up somehow so you are feeding power to the starter all the time.
