Amateur :-)

My original battery(1991)  must really hate me because :

Jumped 9 times in 1995 and so far 7 times in 1996...never recharged 

it, just got the jumpstart and drove for half an hour.

I hate using the pop-ups so I drive a lot with the parking lights + 

fog lights on and then I forget about them....have to get me a light 

reminder switch. (but I keep forgetting).

Anyway I'm on first name basis now with the mechanics from the auto 

club who have to come jump-start me every two months....



pushing my luck...
