Re: Battery/starting issues

Ross, the car takes longer to start when hot, after driving and stopping. It didn't spin any faster after the starter repair, but started right away. I'm still thinking the battery is bad, since I boiled most of the water out over the summer when I wasn't driving it because of the radiator.

The reason I put a six-volt tender on it was for the same reason- I wasn't driving it much at all, and the battery I bought in 2012 only lasted two years. I can now drive it regularly, and I'm not putting the tender on it.

I don't think I had this problem before, when I had the first battery, at least until it went bad.
