That's the old Delco Eye. It's basically a hydrometer. I've never seen a truly bad battery where the eye was green, though a good battery might not have a green eye. I assume it's a malfunction in the hydrometer - maybe the float sticking? I suppose it could stick in the "good" position, but I've never seen one do that.

This is a water level and charge indicator: green is charged, black is low or discharged and clear is low water. tim _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive |
