    Baking Soda mixed with water neutralizes battery acid..

    • @nerdywolfi
      @nerdywolfi 9 месяцев назад

      Vinegar should also be able to neutralize battery acid. And then rinsing with lots of water.
      Just rinsing everything with lots of water as quick as possible should also do the trick if you neither have baking soda nor vinegar handy when the "battery acid incident" occurs.

  • @user-qv7in9fw3j
    @user-qv7in9fw3j 9 месяцев назад +1

    hi dan, you should buy a large bag of Baking Soda, that neutralizes acid. I use it on my boat. and other items. Soda is ok but it leaves every thing sticky and attracts insects. then the acid in the soda you have to worry about. Remember, the old timers use to pour coke on the rusted lug nuts to help with the removal ..

    Dan, rule of thumb, change one battery, change them all at the same time! You will get better life out of them. On generator, usually when they shut off, it is either an oil sender switch or thermostat. Possibly a fuel filter that is getting plugged. I run a 10k Kubota in our coach. Sweet genny! Safe travels and yes, these rigs aren't cheap to fix!

    Neutralize any acid spills on the vehicle and in the work area with baking soda. Then rinse the affected area with clean water. Always pour the concentrated acid slowly into the water when preparing electrolyte; DO NOT pour water into the acid. Constantly stir the water while adding small amounts of acid.

    Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. Good to see you back in the saddle. It never fails, there is always something that needs your attention so that it gets fixed. That must have been a hefty shop bill with what all you got done. Your tires should start wearing better and like you said you are getting a better ride. It would be nice to sell the 03. Extra cash flow is always nice. I bet you enjoyed being home for over two weeks. Your home but not away from the trucks, you away from the road. Another fine video Dan. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails and happy motoring.

    Looking good Dan , Teresa looking good Dan Little Bailey looking good , I thought you had a water hose from your tank that you carry water , Take and spray all the batteries off , and spray the box out , But that's why I do not buy 2 batteries at 1 time , I buy all 4 , That's good you got the king pens all the brushings and everything done , hopefully you done a 3 axle alignment which I think you did , For sure no sense in having them too truck setting around , If it was me I would sell them too ,
    be safe take care yourselves Dan

    All you need for battery acid (sulfuric acid) is water. In another container, its used as aluminum brightener. Coke has phosphoric acid in it. People use it to clean corrosion, but keeping your battery dirt free, connections tight and protected, all vehicle grounds clean tight and protected, there wont be corrosion. And will last 10-15 years or more. Assuming the batteries are quality to begin with, and kept fully charged at all times, placed on trickle chargers occasionally, especially before winter.

    Again a cool and interesting video 🙂.
    Awesome that the 03 Pete just started right away 🤩. It’s like she wants to be back on the road with you 😊😎.
    I can understand that you might have a hard time to sell it or not, cause you’ve put a lot of money time and memories with it.
    Hope you don’t have to sell it and that you can take your time to make your decision if to sell or not.
    Thanks for sharing your tour’s/ life with us.
    In my opinion the job of a trucker is not much appreciated in society (especially in Europe).
    Which is a bad thing.
    Cause without you and your colleagues who drive day and night through year after year, the world we know today would not be possible.
    So great thanks to you Dan and also your colleagues 😉.
    Always have a nice and safe trip 💪🏻👍🏻.

  • @donb1183

    Coke is acidic and isn't going to "neutralize" battery acid. You would need something alkaline for that. Pack a couple boxes of baking soda for that job.

  • @mikekelly9977
    @mikekelly9977 9 месяцев назад

    Dan, using a coke to neutralize acid is true. The Bicarbonate in coke is the same as a Alka Seltzer. Had a doctor tell my now passed away mom that if she was getting a upset tummy to drink( sip) a coke to settle it. He was old school doc and didnt like giving scripts for simple fixes. So pour away with the coke. Also a mixture of baking soda and water- same thing. Be sure and tell why you put chains on to get across Colorado - The Chain Law. Keep between the mustard and mayo on the road.
