I will try having the battery checked at a different place. But
exactly how can a hydrometer lie???? The device is so simple
I would think it would be infallible.

That's pretty much the reason why I am inclined to go with the
hydrometer test.

Good luck with it. On the up side, if you are living in a winter bearing
climate as I am, pretty soon you won't have to worry about it for
another bunch of months.

There isn't any reason for one cell to be low on electrolyte and the
others ok - it just doesn't settle that way.



I concur but, and I may be disremebering it, one cell failed the
hydrometer test but the low electrolyte was pretty much across the
board.

But the memory isn't always as reliable as it used to be.


Hmmmmmm - good point.

Odd that one cell would do that though.

Take care.
