[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 487762, member: 15636"] Wet cell? Not cleaned off peridocially or keeping electrolyte levels up there? If so, with a battery where the plates have 'sulfated', i.e., are now compromised, the remaining plates may charge and read ~12.6 volts or so ... leaving you to think it is 'OK', [b]but there's no [i]oooooomph, power or amps[/i] behind that voltage.[/b] I'd buy an Interstate or NAPA commercial battery, if they make one to fit your vehicle.
