I got a warranty replacement for the first one. They made me pay for the months that I'd already used, or some BS, and then gave me a no name refurbished battery. That just died, so I bought a brand new AC Delco battery for much cheaper through my work that has over a hundred more CA than the previous no name one. Same size and everything.

Thanks for the tips guys, I wish I had more motivation to work on it. Today I was lazy feeling after this weekend's earlier work, and now I'm going to be working during the day on cars for work... After helping other people with their cars on friday night and saturday during the day, my distributor broke a spring(I assume) and now that's my other pain in the ass, other than the charging system. Got all of my new tires on though, as well as the front sway, in time for the nasty winds and rains we're having right now...

If only I could use the wipers, headlights and fan at the same time without killing the battery... I have enough trouble with the windows fogging up as it is.
