Disconnect battery when charging?
My owners manual (2000 C2 Cab) says to disconnect the battery when using a charger or the alternator could be damaged. Is this for real? I would have to reset my clock, radio presets, radio theft code, etc. - a real pain.
How about for a low amperage charger, say 2 to 5 amps?
Can I use a battery maintainer/tender without disconnecting the battery? I'm going into my 1st New England winter with this car and its already cranking slowly.
