If you leave a battery in car for the winter and not turn it over will it kill the battery?
Not it it is a good battery. I suggest if you are going to let it set for an entire winter, disconnect the positive battery cable. It should be fine if it is a good battery that is fully charged. You might want to put a charger on it next spring just before trying to start the engine after you reconnect the positive cable.
Is it worth charging a car battery if it has gone flat several times?
If you don't keep an otherwise good battery charged in freezing weather it can freeze and break the case. If your battery won't hold a charge because something is draining it, you should disconnect a cable and charge it then reconnect it before you try to start the car...or fix whatever it is that is causing the draw. It is better to keep the battery charged so you can start the car when needed. Consider hooking a battery tender to the battery if it discharges because of long-term disuse.
Why wont my battery stay charged on a 1996 crownvictoria?
Dead cell in battery or something is on pulling power from the battery. Disconnect the negative battery cable overnight with the battery fully charged (12.6 volts). If the battery is dead the next morning it has a dead cell and needs replacing. If however the battery is still fully charged then a light is on somewhere or a relay is stuck closed.
