I don't believe this is true and here is my evidence:
The Owner's manuals from vehicles 50 years ago gave you information on how to do a minor tune-up.
These days the Owners manual comes with a battery warning:
-If acid has been swallowed, consult a doctor immediately!
As a kid I may have seemed dumber than kids these days, but I never had to be warned NOT to drink Battery Acid. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2018 Posts: 341 Likes: 1 Member | | Member Joined: Mar 2018 Posts: 341 Likes: 1 | The kids must be really smart, auto batteries are sealed now.

I had my little brother lay on the ground under the engine holding the #1 plug wire and I would watch for the flinching. | | | | Forums94 Topics93,295 Posts634,139 Members49,497 | | Most Online5,661
