Which is failing - my car's battery or the charging system?

Can anyone tell me how
long I can leave it thus charging? Is 15 hours too much?
What's the charger's output in amps, and what's the capacity of the
battery in Amp Hours?
4 amp charger ; 95Ah battery
Have you by chance fitted an old style lead acid battery into a car
which is intended to take a silver calcium battery? I would imagine
that would over charge it and lose the electrolyte, although probably
much faster than you are experiencing.
I don't know. It was chosen by a battery dealer hundreds of miles from
here, while I was travelling once. He selected it from some computer
database as being suitable. That's all I know. The present battery is made
by CBX and I can't determine the model just now. It's a 700 amp 95 Ah. The
vehicle is a Mitsubishi Delica 1995 2.8TD auto 4x4 (Japanese grey import).
