Hello,
An elderly relative hasn't driven for a few years so the car has sat SORN and rusting. I opened the bonnet for the first time yesterday and what a sad sight. The coolant tank was completely empty. I didn't get as far as pulling off a radiator hose to see if it was completely empty. I guess a slow leak over a couple of years of going nowhere could have drained it. There was a little oil on the dipstick but below the minimum. Whether that has leaked or whether she never topped it up, who knows.
Anyway, the reason for the post is that I removed the battery. I was expecting it to be sulphated and no use but I thought before going to the tip, I would connect it to a battery charger and see what happened. All of yesterday the ammeter showed no amps. Today it is showing 2A.
So I am curious. What is going on here? Is the battery slowly coming back to life? I know you can get some fancy chargers that say they can undo sulphation, but this isn't one of them. I can here the occasional bubble too.
TIA
