1. Take the battery out of the car.
2. Make sure the water level in each cell is where it is supposed to be. Use distilled water if you need to add some.
3. Charge the battery fully.
4. If you can find out where the PO bought that battery (or if it was in the car when he bought it, you can find out online who in your area sells that brand), take it there (in another vehicle) to have it load tested. They'll likely give you the best pro-rata replacement price if it's on its last legs.

They might require that the original purchaser be the one who brings it in to get the pro-rata thing.
