Anyone ever overfilled Batteries?

My batteries were a low, so I topped them off.

They leaked a bunch of liquid on the floor of my garage.

Should I leave them as they are or try to pull some of the water out with a clean baster?...

72 911T Battery Clamp Down Strap WTB

I need 1 of these. It is the part that threads into the bottom of the luggage compartment and then mates with the piece that is attached to the back of the battery compartment.

Thanks.

Anybody ever changed their Fan Pulley to improve cooling?

I have heard that you can spin your fan faster and improve cooling by a few degrees.

Anybody ever done this?

Switched from 10/40 to 20/50 and car runs hotter.

I switched from 10/40 winter oil to 20/50 summer oil today and my car runs hotter. It was running at 180, now it runs at 210. This makes no sense to me.

Thoughts???
