    Over the past few weeks my battry seems to be well... flat or almost flat. I drive the Z everyday and it sounds like its just turnin over everytime i start her.. ya know that roowwww sound :p. so i decided to check the battery water levle and i dont think there is much of anything in ther cause i can see the cells and there is no water in them... does this mean they need filling cause the batter says "maintenecnce free" apparently...... however the fine print on the warning label states "may need attention in adverse condidtions" or something along those lines.. so i was just wondering if i SHOULD fill up the battery with water and if so tap water or demineralised water... and how much?

    top up with distilled water...

    there should be a level indicator on the battery somewhere.

    i always thought that they should have water

    up to the very top and yes you should use distilled water. You can just boil water and get pretty much the same thing but let it cool before you put it in :p
