[Chevelle-list] AC Delco Battery (off topic) now over tightening

[brian hollingshead]

The MTP-79 does not come with the vent kit you will have to use the old ones. We usually make our own from motorcycle vent kits if a customers old ones will not work. Or just some plastic hose from a hardware store works pretty well.

Thanks for the responses,
 
Keith,
Regarding the overtightening of the Delco battery posts I can buy into that but 2 were OEM untouched by anyone else and the the other was done by the dealer.
Regardless I will look into the lock washer issue.
 
 
Hey Brian,
Since you work for Interstate does your replacement MTP-79 have the vent hardware or do you need to salvage it from the OEM battery?
 
Tom,
I did have an old Delco in my Chevelle when I bought it in 1994, that sucker lasted 10 years (really!) before I replaced it.
It just finally died.
Guess they don’t make em like they used to.
 
BTW remember those trunk rods you gave me a number of years back?
I finally got them in last spring, just horsed them into place as I didn’t have any tool for the install.
They work great.
No more propped open trunk at cruize nights.
 
 
Thanks again,
Bob Belz
