Hi, first post. The sealed battery of my Iseki TU 1401 has started to give off a foul (sulphur) smelling gas under heavy use - using flail mower. The battery is 12V. The voltage readings are as follows; idling - 17.86, revving - 18.74, revving and lights - 18.54. Just wondering if anyone can assist in diagnosing whether the alternator is faulty or if it's the battery? I am fairly new tractor owner. I imported tractor to France from dealer in UK. Any help gratefully received. Thanks, Ray.
