Four year old auto battery group 24 on my Kioti tractor has been fine for 3-4 year, trickle charger on when there is long down time. Used about 5 days ago but yesterday when I went out to start it, it had died an instant death, according to my battery charger as well as a batt checker. Both said DEAD, Replace. I wanted something quick without a lot of searching around so I got a Marine battery from O'Reilly's. Price $120 otd. Was dark when i got home but will put charger on to check it out before installing later today.
Old battery had a lot of corrosion which I have cleaned off; what is a good way to stop the hot terminal from corroding? I've got dielectric grease; maybe smear that on generously?
