battery prob

nongrokal · Aug 29, 2009

so is any one out there a battery expert? my landy battery got droped , this cracked the case and two cells ran dry. i repaird the cracks and refill with acid from an old battery, now i cant get the two cells to charge up
should i have used acid from a flat cell or a charged one, i seem to remember somethink about the acid turning to water when the cell is charged.

Its also probably damaged the seperators between the plates allowing them to short, throw the battery and invest in a new one....

it's a lot more bearable if you visit an agricultural merchant or tractor dealer instead of a motor factors. ask for a 643 or 644 type battery which is about the biggest tractor battery you can fit in a series tray. the difference between 643 and 644 is which way round you want the + and the -. expect to pay about £35.
