I thought I had a maintainance-free leisure battery. WRONG!
Pulled it out today and found an unfamiliar (to me) battery.
I'm used to either a 'leave it alone till it dies' one (like on my car) OR one with screw caps where you top up above the plates. The one on the van is odd; well, certainly to me it is! It just has ONE 'hole' and a colour code next to it (See pic).
Having unscrewed the 'bung' it has a stem attached to it. Am I right in assuming that this is some sort of dipstick (just like me ). The stem is white. Do I further assume that I need to add distilled water - pronto!
