I got around to the car this weekend. I cleaned the battery posts and the terminal connectors. I even wire brushed the ground connection on the engine. I was also going to brush the stranded wires where they attach to the connectors. When I went to loosen up the bolts on the positive terminal...

I will get around to cleaning these terminals this weekend. Thanks for all the suggestions. I still have this old box with battery maintenance parts. The box is over 50 years old and stuff inside was last used on my 68 Roadrunner. The amazing thing is that I knew right where this box was.

That spark at the positive terminal was freaky. I'm 98% my connections were tight, and I did jiggle the connection to see if the terminal was mushy in the battery. Just a week ago the store said the battery was good, but I'm not sure if they tested it under load.

I don't know about that movie, but Dana Andrews -- remember Hot Rods to Hell?

A friend of mine showed me this flashlight a few months ago. I was also impressed.

What part of its a 2000 lb wild animal with horns and you are a 200 lb idiot does this person not understand?

Years ago I used Armor All on my vinyl dash. It made the dash look nice, but I always had outgassing on the windshield. It was not worth it.

Electronic parts can be put together cheaply, but $33 is almost too cheap. This is one heck of a deal if the quality is good and it will hold up for years. We definitely need some reviews.

I don't know him, but he sure gave good advice.
