Another quick test: Touch one end of a 12v test lamp to chassis, and then the other end to either post. The positive, red or + terminal is the one that makes the lamp glow when the other end is 'grounded.'

This will work for all cars with 'negative ground' wiring. It is very rare for cars to have positive ground.
