One thing to note about regularly disconnecting a battery, is the type of vehicle.
Most ford and chrysler trucks, doesn`t hurt anything, but I wouldn`t recommend it on the GM`s after about 96 or chrysler cars and vans.
Those vehicles run adaptive learn systems that can have really long relearn times depending on how they are driven, this would more than likely decrease performance til the computer had everything figured back out again.
The allison in the new chevys is a great example. If you clear the adapts that thing will work like crap. It has taken me over 100 miles of drive in time to dial them back in again, and that`s running them thru a dedicated drive cycle. That could be 1000+ miles of normal driving before they get thru their relearn on their own. Duramax guys, don`t get me wrong, this is one big bad trans once it`s adapts are set, but it slips, flairs and bangs down til then. Caravans, intrepids, and the real late lighter dodge trucks are the same way, not quit so severe.
T_bone, Ive read enough of your posts to see that you know your stuff. I ain`t jumpin on ya, just thought it was info worth putting out there. BW
BTW glad to here ford came down on their cam sensors, must`ve been right after I bought my last one. Go figure
