Got my lawn tractor running a month ago and everything seemed great. Got out yesterday to start it and it was dead. Got out battery charger and when I lifted the covers on the battery noticed that the long bolts that hold the battery to the tray were totally covered with that white powder that batteries seem to love to make. I had steam cleaned it last month when I replaced started and solenoid...I don't get it because the metal bolts hold down a plastic piece around the battery and the tray they screw into is also plastic. No path that I can see for electricity to travel to the bolts to cause some sort of corrosion. Put charger on it...it started. Ran for 20 minutes, parked it and tried to start again....it is dead again. HELP!!!!
