not the battery at all, as per the video standards I put in another batt out of my truck, it had 12.54 volts just fresh from sitting in the truck for a couple days, it has 12.65 after ten mins on trickle charge. I also went batt shopping, my locals had a silver pro ac delco on the shelf...

three yr old, yes Hi Yes I knew that, but since I search old thread s for info that I can use, perhaps someone else can use the info that I provided since it hadnt been mentioned before.

freon spray You may want to heat the area surrounding the plug, then hit the plug itself with freon spray , hardware stores can order a spray can of it. This should expand the case, and shrink the plug, breaking whatever corrosion is there. All the other guys had good info too, but this is an...
