Re: [SPAM] [Chevelle-list] Battery acid concentration?
John is correct. You must load test a battery to determine if it's OK and even then, it's not foolproof. I've got a '98 Dodge Ram pickup with the original factory battery and it still works perfectly. I have no idea why this is so - it should have been gone years ago. Not only that, there is not a speck of corrosion on the top of it and never has been. It looks and acts brand new.
