How do you mix battery water. Should you mix water and acid outside the battery then throw it in or should you throw in the acid followed by water or vice versa?
In normal battery operation, only water is evaporated usually and leaves the acid. So normally you just add water to the battery to the proper level. However having said that, a charging system that operates at over 14.5 volts will BOIL out acid and water. The proper charging voltage seems to be 14.2 volts. Voltages less than that leave a battery undercharged and more than that overcharged, and the chance to evaporate battery solution. If you are continually having to add water, then this may be the case. To answer your question on the mixing, you can add water and then acid or vice versa in the battery. The battery activity will mix the two chemicals together in normal operation. Usually all you ever have to do is add a small amount of water maybe once a year or less.

How do you add fluid to a battery on a 2007 Saturn ion?
Shouldn't have to add anything unless the charging system is overcharging the battery. Some batteries are sealed and you can't add if you wanted to. If you think that the battery acid level is lower than it should be have the system tested for problems.
