Used it
Too late, the corrosion ate thru the Cheap a$$ Honda battery lug
 
Was the cell low?
 
That's what happens when you let Spanish Moss get under the bonnet.
 
I'll find out this week end Elliot.
I am have the charging system checked after I replace the cable.
The batter was replaced either last spring or the spring before.
So not real old

Dave looks more like S. Carolina Meth
 
Oh. I tasted it
Had a kind of acidy taste
 
Hope you are doing to do the cable yourself. My daughter has an Accord and Honda dealer wanted some unreal amount for to replace the cable.

Old cable is out and will pick up the new tomorrow
Done my 2 Accords years ago
But why do they have to put things with sharp edges and points down there
 
It's all designed to happen on or just after Pearl Harbor Day.
 
Well saga continues. Put it almost back together and turned the key.It whirled slowly and kick over and started.I let it run for a minute and shut it off. Buttoned it up and turned the key to move the van to clean the battery junk from the wash off my garage floor and NADA.
Wouldn't even crank
Attached the jump box to it and let it sit a while and still nothing. Left it connected for 3 hrs and still squat.
Bought new battery last night
Will try today
 
Sorry to see you hurt your thumb.
 
It's a shame that you had a bum battery. What brand was it?
 
Interstate.
And full disclosure
I always had bought blems from them as they were about 3 miles from my Washington house. I could always feel secure I got a good deal with them
I bought this the same way but from a Charleston place.
I never felt completely sure I got a good deal.
Always wondered if I got 1 from the bad pile
