Hello all. I'm tired of cleaning the corrosion off the terminals of my F150. I think the OEM battery has a small acid seep around the post.
Simple fix for a couple of dollars.
Clean the battery and cable ends with baking soda and water solution. Rinse with clean water. Remove cable ends. Place a GENEROUS "gob" of axle grease on the battery post and the surrounding 1/2 - 1" radius. Replace the cable end and puts another generous gob on top. Make sure to cover all exposed metal.
Yes, it looks like ****, but you should only have to do it once.
There are various sprays and donuts that may or may not work, but this is cheap.
