    My Bird going to sleep

    Hi Guys, my Wife & I are off to Europe, (Italy & Greek Islands) for 6 weeks. As my Bird & my '79 Caddy Eldorado can be driven the whole year round here in OZ I've never had the Battery disconnected. Best to disconnect one, or both of the Battery leads.?
    We are leaving around 10 pm tonight (Tuesday.)

    We are staying in Rome for 4 days & in Sorrento for 4 days.
    If any T.Birders there let me know so we can catch up.

    Chris......From OZ.

    For safety sake disconnect one battery lead. It doesn't matter which one.

    Have a great trip.

      I agree with John (as usual, because he knows his stuff). If the Caddy has a EFI computer, I would keep the battery connected. Use a float charger on both batteries. - Dave
