Okay,



this may sound like a dumb question, but I have to ask it. How flammable is grease like you use for bearings? The reason I ask is that I am having problems with my batteries. I think the last person who owned the truck used grease on the terminals to keep the corrosion at bay. Well, it's not working and the grease has made a huge mess. I live in AK and need some heat for my batteries, but I'm concerned that if I plug the heater pads in they may cause a fire! I am desperate to get this figured out. I have decided that I need new batteries anyways, but I want sealed instead of these I have now that are not sealed. Are the sealed batteries not any good? It just seems so much easier to me if they can't leak. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If by sealed you mean an Optima type battery I wouldn't used anything else because of the no corrosion factor alone. With an Optima no grease, corrosion sprays or washers are necessary.
