Corrosion on Positive battery terminal

[Daryl]

$135 for the battery (will be there by 1:00) and $30 for a pair of wiper blades.

I had never heard of the overcharging thing but after looking it up I did find some info that said it could be the problem. Any idea what voltage your seeing and I mean a number not the location on the stock gauge.

He will this weekend. Its one of the things I want to check. I have the tools to check it accurately.

Put in a Motorcraft battery today (along with new MotorCraft wiper blades). Hope this cures the problem…

Why not head to Ford and by a battery at the dealer. Just bought the top of the range Motorcraft at Simi Ford for 167.00 for the Explorer. The Motorcraft battery in the black car is 7 years old and still working.

Just paid 176 for a duralast gold at autozone for my 17 explorer sport. Terminal was so corroded that it broke off trying to remove the clamp. Would of preferred a motor craft but it was a 8pm repair that came out of no where and I needed it running for work in the morning. I did get the little felt pad kit and installed it so we will see.

There are those situations where you have to get it done and have no choice. You can only make the best choice you can based on the situation.
