akewlguy Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 I just opened my battery covers and they are empty or dry. Should these holes be full of water? Cheers to Lexus and your help
obergc Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Yep, add distilled water only to the fill mark.
1990LS400 Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Checking the water level in your battery once a month should be enough. I keep a specialized battery filler bottle (similar to the attached photo) filled with distilled water in the garage on a shelf with all the other "top up fluids" - oil, premixed coolant oil, windshield washer fluid, etc.
akewlguy Posted October 24, 2005 Author Posted October 24, 2005 I hope 300 foot well water is close to distiled? Thanks for the response..
lenore Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 well water is not distilled, the well water probably has a great deal of minerals in it. Distilled water is water like the droplets under the lid of a pot and pan cover after boiling the water. It is usually very mineral free which is what you really want.
akewlguy Posted October 24, 2005 Author Posted October 24, 2005 Ahhhh I am going to have a mine in my battery (maybe the gold will rise to the top).
