I think I might be having problems soon too. I was doing some heavy P&G at night (2 nights ago), and I was so worried about my new partial boat tail falling off or something, that I forgot about my heavy P&G. After minute+ light, with m headlights and radio on, I tried to start my car and it did not start.
After the jumpstart (thanks jumper!), and the errand I was on,
apparently I forgot to take the key out of the ignition, and left the fan on the lowest setting and my idiot lights on all night. Needless to say I felt very stupid to have to jump my car twice within 24 hours. I did scrape off a lot of white corrosion from on top of the battery, and so far it starts like it should, but I'm worried.
Remember my 1100+ CCA post (page one)?
I went to advance auto and it was only 450 CCA
And it must have been 90+ degrees outside . . .
I really want an optima yellow top but they are so expensive . . . any suggestions? I live in a very hot climate, so I don't need a good winter battery, but I do P&G a lot, sometimes at night.
