    If you know the battery is failing, there's no point keeping it and risk having a dead car on the road. Change it soon.

    I've had the battery on my car for nearly 3 years, and that's what we got when we acquired the car. Bakit 15 months lang yung life niya?

    Speaking like a true W123 owner hehehhe

    Kung nag-aasin sa terminal, binubuhusan ko lang ng tubig. hehehe. Ano nga ba dapat nilalagay dun para hindi mag-asin? Vinegar ba? Sorry, I can't remember. Household remedy lang yun.

    Aside from baking soda and (warm) water, na sabi ni userfriendly, I remember using in the past, one of our coins na may aluminum content (not sure though...), placed near the + terminal, to attract the 'asin'.... It worked then...

    Ideally, dapat level ang battery mo.

    However, kung hindi, just make sure that the plates are all submerged, and the water(acid) is not up to a point where it can leak out of the battery....

    question, if you have this handy battery charger, where can you have the battery replaced?

    this is a auto-emergency power supply. the unit will be charged on 220VAC once the battery will became weak. One function of this unit is it has a VDC outlet to charge your celfone instead on cigarette. i saw it on hot rod car access in banawe, unfortunately, i didnt get their contact #

    Dielectric means does not conduct electricity. The grease is actually for corrosion protection.
