Had a knightmare dissconneting the battery!
How many problems can you face when disconnecting a battery?
The answer is alot more than you think!
First of all I wne to dissconnet the terminal and the clamp bolt snapped
The clamp was still tight as it had correded soo much! so i tried to turn the other end of the bolt but it butts up againt the terminal to stop it spinning! so no hope there!
I the put a screwdriver under the terminal and gently leverd it up.....untill.....The bloody battery cracked and spat acid all over me![[:@]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/furious.gif "Furious [:@]")
So there i am running around me quiet little street screamin, F'in and blinding because i have acid burning me!
So i sorted me self out and got back to the motor!
I eventualy got the terminal off and removed the battery!
So i have no battery on me car so i cant go any where and then i found out i had locked myself out of the house
Not going too well so far!
So i waited around for abit and someone turned up to let me in
I got up this morning and rang around for a battery. I found a place that had one so i got on me push bike and went to the shop picked it up and heaed home!! Have any of you guys tryed to ride a bike with a battery in a bag on ya back? Well Dont, its not big and its definatly not clever!
So i put the battery on and then found that i still had half a bolt in the battery clamp! I then spent about 30mins trying to get it out!
Then threw it back together and bobs your uncle and fannys ur aunt!
All in all a good day
