Battery acid on batteries
Alright about a mounth ago i filled my batteries using a battery filler and at wasnt fully charged so it is a little over filled but not by much. Since then every day i have acid coming out of the cell caps. So i continue putting baking soda on them daily it seems that they will soon run out of acid then ruin my run time. How long will this last seems like it should have ended by now. But i also have one new battery in the battery pack. Could this have affect on the acid coming out? I really need help dont want to ruin my golf cart.

Re: Battery acid on batteries
Older batteries will 'sweat' more than newer ones.
Just don't overfill them and you should be ok, but do not let them go dry... |

Re: Battery acid on batteries
charge the cart untill the charger turns off by it's self, after the charger turned off on it own, let the battery pack settle for around 12 hours to get true readings, after 12 hours of rest, give us the battery pack volts, and each battery's volts, how old are the batteries?, have they ever been dry of water/lead plates showing?, how long does it take for the charger to charge the battery pack and turn off by it's self, you should only fill the batteries with distilled water after they are done charging, water only needs to be 1/4" above the plates to charge safely, what cart do you have, what make of batteries?,
