I go out to check my oil and I notice something looks different. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
The entire battery and tray has come off of the rusty engine compartment side wall, this isn't good. It looks like the bolts that held it in place are still attached to the tray at least on one side but have ripped through the sheetmetal. Now the battery is sitting right on top of the fuel line and pump so I'm taking the morning off from work to try to get it back where it goes. I think I'll be able to get to it and just get another piece of metal to put on the other side (hell hole) for a little more support and bolt it all back up there, hopefully with minimal hole drilling. |

You could weld it back, or now might be a good time to consider relocating the battery to the front or rear trunk (mine's in the rear).
