Battery has been "iffy" lately, and yesterday it pooped out on me. I don't have time to wait to order a battery to get to the Deal's Gap gathering this weekend, I just bought an old-fashioned, have-to-maintain-it battery (that I could afford).
This one is funny. They all bubble when you put the electrolyte in them, but this one, the bubbles aren't going away. I've been tapping on it every few hours, still bubbles I can see in between the lead plates. And the lead plates don't look straight in all the cells. When I tap on it some bubbles come up, but most are still in there betwen the plates.
I can't charge it with bubbles still in it, can I?
Last--there's about a cup of electrolyte left over. How do I properly dispose of it?
