    Um huh…

    You’re some kind of battery guru and you come here looking for information?

    And you are concerned the “application manual” warning of electrical damage, did it ever run through your mind why the warning is so vague? Heck my manual says I’ll get cancer if I touch my battery, but only if I live in California!?! Hey but who knows maybe the years spent as an electrician I missed a day or two of class on special lead acid batteries. In a round about way I was trying to give you a little practical information that I have picked up over last 11 years maintaining my GPs. But hey just bring it to the dealer; I’m sure they will put a non-damaging battery in. lmao

    Ten years of continuous driving excitement and counting!

    I thought that the throttle body may have need cleaning, I did that earlier in the year, but I didnt check the MAF. I also dont know that the pcv valve has been changed either, but with some reading last night between oil changes on the 3.8 it seems to use up that 1qt. I will have a look at how to clean the MAF as well. I believe that its on top of the throttle body...

    What I came here for was maybe a similar expirence, or if someone else maybe has had the same issue. As most of us know about these cars the electrical is very fragile, sorry to make a comment that offended you. I was just trying to get more information and see if anyone else had a similar issue.
