Yeobh 4th Gear May 31, 2006 Share May 31, 2006 Get hold of a aftermarket Voltmeter, at least it can indicate your battery charge status. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osiris 1st Gear June 5, 2006 Share June 5, 2006 Bro, just wan to check with you. Is your replacement battery (furukawa) comes in a white box (FB word) with yellow caps? My battery also changed and was told it's maintenance free except that there are yellow caps to be unscrewed to add battery water. There's even a low & max line drawn. So it isn't maintenance free right? True maintenance free are sealed IIRC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
