smoking car battery
smoking car battery Not exactly a racing question, but it happened on my race car so here goes. I was charging the battery and forgot about it. Two hours later I walk into the garage and can smell something foul. I immidiately unhooked the battery and disconnected it from the car. It was smoking out of the vent holes and I could here it bubbling and a little bit of water bad bubbled out of the top. Maybe about 15-20 drops, 1/10 of an ounce.
Did I ruin the battery? Is there any chance of it exploding?
Thanks

It was the stock battery in a 94 TA. It has the two vents on the top sides.
Did you think the battery is still ok? Or just that it won't explode.
I am still trying to vent the house out. 15 degrees outside and the wife isn't real happy to have the windows open.
Good thing I don't smoke.
Thanks
