Batteries updates

To test the battery you can do a hydrometer test and a reading on a 12.25 is an alright battery. check every cell on the battery if one cell is buggered then you have to replace the battery, or you can do a load test by hooking up the load tester to the positive and negitave termianls and crank the tester to half the cold cranking amps of the battery and do this for upto 15 seconds and a good battery would hold more than 9.5volts under load to be in good working order. to maintain the battery you can also check the level of fluids and the condcition of the fluids.
