Smile Battery running out of charge

Hya,

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem, if I dont start my car every other day,there is not enough charge to turn the engine it just clicks. I will then charge battery for an hour and it starts first click What do you guys think (new battery required).

I have a 1994 wrx.

Cheers Mark

have you cheaked the acid level is above lead cells may need a top up if dry and wont hold charge for long or there is power drain through an elecrical faut like alarm or sumat but that needs proper testing to find out..
more than likely going to be a deteriorated/dead cell that too can be tested but for wot there worth id bang a new one on if acid level is correct
