Default Picture of my PC680 battery install (plus a few questions)...

I would've gotten a better picture, and some without the cover on if it was raining so hard here in nj.

I also bought a coolant tank for an A4 and i installed w/o any problems. But one I went to put in the coolant level sensor, i noticed the a4 uses a round sensor. Does anyone know the A4's part number? Right now I have the stock sensor wrapped in electrical tape with a resistor in it.

and after getting gas today my gas mileage was 17.5 mpg. Does this sound a bit low? Could it be because I have the old ECT sensor (black) but I haven't had a check engine light at all? Thanks a lot.

Dude, that looks terrible... There's gotta be a better way you can install that.

I think it needs more wood. Maybe a few nails and shingles too

The wood was just temporary to make sure it didn't cover the drain hole...
