    Having a warranty on my Walmart battery wasn't a good thing, after two hours it passed test and said it just needs to be charged, so me being mad, i hooked it up to 120 volt outlet in my shop to blow it up and collect my warranty claim, but after clicking the breaker a few times nothing, so next best thing was to try it, I used it for another year until I sold the truck, highly not recommending to try this but instant charge

    Fuel trim is the result of all the feedback system sensors, timing, ignition, and mechanical condition. When I see less than 10% when combining the stft with the ltft it's normal. On mine it stays pretty close to zero percent...& When I see what I see at its worst combined with the other data I know what to look at or what's wrong. Some manufacturers set a code after seeing +/- 20-25% after so many cycles. When I first learned about trim data and reading other live data when I'd see more than a few percent I'd get nervous & wonder what was wrong but I realized I was seeing what I was because I wasn't driving something that was anywhere near considered new. But I have diagnosed plugs, or timing chains, O2 sensors, CTS, and even manifold gaskets with the live data as well. When I drive a vehicle I can usually feel and hear improprieties and if it's long enough I'll plug in to look at the data.

I've got a john deer mower and the battery on it is original battery and is 25 yrs old and still working. I've added oil 3 different times and brought the battery back to life.
