While my name appears below, I sure can't say as I've written any of
that.

The test is to charge the battery with one or both battery cables

replace the battery.


His lead-acid battery is probably sulfated and not capable of being
charged
properly.

Vector makes chargers that allegedly desulfate and recondition L-A
batteries,but I've not tried them myself.
The charger would cost more than a new battery,that is certain.

Of course,you could buy a Vector charger,try it,and sell it on Ebay
as
bearely used if you aren't satisfied with its desulfating results.
