Bruce--Thanks. Then I will just plug it in and leave for 24 hours. I don't feel like balancing across the front end with my bum knee and just messed up my heel on other foot...I'm a walking disaster, LOL! Will let y'all know if it works.
If not, then it will be on to one of those (I forget) batteries that the group recommended. BTW, do those have any tendency to explode under the hood? Had that happen with reg. battery in my Linc. Good thing it had a hood quilt or there would be a big dent in the hood! Thanks.
