Well, chalk up another repair I was blind to for the past 10 years. My negative battery cable always had battery acid on it, preventing me from starting up after a short trip(gas station, etc). It was due to the fact it had a copper(or brass?) clamp to the terminal. Thus, making a battery in and of itself.

I went to the parts store, bought another one that's steel of equal length, crimped on that smaller negative cable & I was done. 5 bucks compared to the $40 SpitBits was charging.

This explains all the battery acid that has shown up in the battery box, etc over the years. Apparently it was finnicky with this battery moreso.
