Battery exploding is usually caused by the alternator over charging the battery. I blew up 2 batteries in 1 car until I realized the alternator was messed up. Was 18 at the time was still learning a lot about cars.

What occurred is a weld broke between two cells. It was above the acid level and a spark ignited the hydrogen gas when the weld broke.
I worked in a battery factory, Globe Union, until it was bought out by Johnson Control Incorporated and moved to Mexico. When you tried to start the engine, a load was placed on the battery and the weld let loose. The circuit opened and no power was supplied to the vehicle. |
