Q.<\/strong> I have a tractor battery that rubbed a hole in itself and leaked under the hood of my tractor and ran down the frame.\u00a0How do I clean up the battery acid so I don\u2019t damage my tractor?<\/p>\n

A.<\/strong> Clean up spills immediately using water and baking soda solution to neutralize the battery acid (one pound of baking soda mixed in one gallon of water). Make sure the area is well ventilated and you are wearing appropriate safety equipment\u00a0and\u00a0following appropriate safety procedures.<\/p>\n
