it will leak from the positive connection becauase the positive connection is what is under place of the acid
Remove it and hook it up to a battery charger. If you don't have a battery charger, you can take it to Autozone and they will charge it for free. Just be careful handling the battery because battery acid can cause serious injuries and damage to property.
An auto battery could be leaking for a couple of reasons. The alternator could be overcharging the battery causing the leakage. Or the battery itself could have a short or other internal problem causing it to leak when charging.
You should be able to clean it up if the problem is solved. Most batteries are outside the car- I wonder why you smell it at all. Battery acid is not especially toxic, but do not drink it, of course. I suspect that you smell something else. Could there be an exhaust leak or maybe the heater leaks antifreeze into the inside of your car.
The transmission leak should not have affected the way the engine starts. Repairing the transmission leak should not have affected the way the engine starts. A new battery should only have IMPROVED the way the engine starts. If someone was not careful and allowed a small particle to get into the fuel line as they were re-connecting it, it could certainly block the injector and cause starting problems, especially if it's a throttle-body (single injector) injected engine.
That isn't much consumption.. If it buggs you take it to a garage and have them give you an estimate.
No they use dry acid if its wet then they will leak out like a car battery.
Usually a battery will leak because of overvoltage, overtemperature or a bad battery cell.
Yes - this is very bad and you should stop using the battery immediately. Battery acid is a very strong acid and can cause severe chemical burns if not handled properly. A battery acid leak means your battery has been damaged and may abruptly stop working.
Anytime you run an automobile battery down you shorten the life of that battery. An acid leak in a sealed battery means the battery must be replaced. If it is leaking from a battery in a battery with filler caps just add distilled water to the full mark and wash the acid off the vehicle battery compartment.
I dont know what you're question is...
There is acid on the inside and it has burnt through the metal that is keeping it inside. The reason the acid might be leaking out is because the battery has a leak.
Battery acid affects the environment because batteries are filled with chemicals that leak into the water system and animals die because they drink.
In a battery room the environment is corrosive, and the acid from the battery may leak, hence wooden stands are preferred.
The acid will leak out making the battery less effective and causing everything around it to get eaten up.
Leaking from where on the battery, the caps? If so the charging system may be over charging the battery and causing the acid to boil out. Could be a voltage regulator problem.
It really depends on whether or not the batteries are rechargable. If they are not, then you can't use them with a battery charger. If you do, they can explode and leak acid on your floor.
There are a number of things that could happen when you break open a worn out cell phone battery. You could have battery acid leak on your hands for example.
