For the last couple of months, I have been fighting a losing battle with corrosion on the negative battery terminal and cable on my 4.6 '02 XLT. I have cleaned them to what looks like 'near new' condition, but, the corrosion keeps coming back. Used corrosion inhibiting dialectic grease and the green crud still formed. Checked the battery (original), and, since it was not putting out to specs, I replaced it. Still, the crud came back. Finally gave up and replaced the cable. Anyone know what causes this condition and/or how to stop or keep it under control?
