[Chevelle-list] spitting battery

2006-05-18 Thread 66chevelless396

My battery is not a maintenance free style and splits small amounts acid from the caps and after a drive it makes a perculating type sound. The cells are not over filled. Is it just time for a new battery or is it avoltage regulator issue or something else.

Thank you for the advice

Hello:it is possible that the battery is venting 
because of a slight overcharging condition.Check and verify that the system is 
not overcharging.- Original Message -

I had/have the same problem.  The alternator rebuilder said to check my 
grounds - can't have too many grounds.  Haven't driven enough miles to 
confirm that the problem has gone away.  I have battery to 
engine/body/frame.
