1998 Honda Civic ex 2dr manual trans
Battery died 2 weeks ago, had massive corrosion, replaced battery. Battery just died again. The positive terminal is too corroded to tighten completely, but I figured it was tight enough. I also have an aftermarket radio that might be a parasitic draw. Or it could be the alternator. Any insight? Both times when it died, it would click when I tried to turn it over. I was also able to push start the car the first time. Today, no clicking, and push starting sounded like it was almost working, but didn't quite turn over the engine. I also could just be bad at push starting.
What makes this problem better or worse?
Battery fixed it for 2 weeks
