[QUOTE="GeorgiaSnake, post: 13443473, member: 113703"] Remember this...the battery is in the car for only 2 reasons. #1 to provide power to the starter to start the engine. #2 to be an emergency power source if the alternator goes bad. Also keeping a charger or some such devise on the battery if the car isn't operated will over time make the battery go bad or otherwise shorten its lifespan. If the car sits unused for some long periods the best thing to do is to just disconnect the battery and reconnect it when you want to drive again. This is what I do when I put my Vert away for the winter, I disconnect the battery. If nothing else, the clock function in my radio will eventually draw the battery down. The Snake [/QUOTE]
