| <Rawze> | the top of the old filter seal will look like it has craters and pot-holes in it if the flange was dirty when it was installed last. | |
| <Rawze> | neglected and half-arssed repairs and services... that is what ppl get then wonder later on why they have troubles. - No one at these shops cares any more. | |

| <smorgan87> | Buddy shuts the truck off, walks inside, gets a burger comes out and the damn batteries have died and are losing power by .1 ever minute. | |
| <smorgan87> | You would know the freightshaker parts house closed 30 minutes prior. So i couldnt get some replacements over to him. | |
| <smorgan87> | Any idea what would cause 6- 6 month old batteries to drain that fast on a 15 pornstar | |
| <Rawze> | bad diodes in alternator?. ECM not fully shutting down?. Bad wiring?. Bad starter or other relay?. - could be anything. | |
| <Rawze> | hsut truck off, pull all battery cables, start checking amperage for each cable while truck is shut off. | |
| <Rawze> | btw: a qualcomm unit can also cause battery drain if it is acting up. | |
| <smorgan87> | No qualcom or anything like that. Ill have him bring the truck to the house so we can check each cable for amp draw. | |
| <snailexpress> | Bad grounding or relay | |
| <snailexpress> | Each battery 130 amp x hour | |
| <snailexpress> | 4 batteries 520 amp x hour | |
| <snailexpress> | To drain them in 30 min current should be 1000 amp | |
| <smorgan87> | Best we can tell one battery shorted internally and offed the rest of em. Got new ones on their way now. | |
| <smorgan87> | What i get for buying 50$ batteries i rekon. They dont always work. | |
| <Evotrucker> | lol parked my truck cuz of the shitty spot market rates and i went to turn it on for a little while. my batteries died out on me.... Fudge... any recommendation? | |
| <smorgan87> | Well i usually buy fleetrite brand at the international dealer parts house. These were alliance from freightshaker. | |
| <tree98> | Deka makes a good battery, they also sell them under the name federated. They have a 2 or maybe it's 3 year NON pro rated Warrenty | |
