Section 14-01: Battery | 1994 Mustang Workshop Manual |
Keeping the battery (10653)
top clean and dry reduces the need for service and extends battery
life. Also make certain the cable clamps are tightly fastened
to the battery
posts. If corrosion is found, disconnect the cables and
clean clamps and posts with a wire brush. Neutralize the corrosion with a
solution of baking soda and water. After installing cables, apply a small
quantity of Premium Long-Life Grease XG-1-C or -K (ESA-M1C75-B) or equivalent
to each battery
post to help prevent corrosion.
