You can buy battery acid at a dealer or auto parts store that sells batteries. However, YOU DO NOT WANT TO ADD ACID TO A DISCHARGED BATTERY. You only add acid to a pre-charged battery that has been drained for shipment. If the electrolyte is low, you add distilled water, and let the battery charge. Besides, if you are looking at a battery with a need for electrolyte, it is better to buy a new battery.
