Car batt question
Bought a new Transit size battery for my fez 4 months ago
It was showing on my amp when in use never below 13.8 volts(thats kicking at full volume
Now it shows 13.0v when at full volume
what can it be? low water in the battery?
Ive upgraded most of the earth cables in my car.
Tighten every connection and still tight.
There are no screws on the battery theres a lil black thing sticking out like a pipe to pump water into the battery?
