The neg terminal is getting a strange blue corrosion on it. What could be causing this? Thank you!
Also, replaced spark plugs 6 months ago. This problem slowly started around 6 months ago after an oil and air filter change.

1 check the cells in the battery. they may be dead
2 your alternator is not keeping a charge on the battery
3 blue hue.. prolly corrosion
misfiring and stalling could be trash in the gas. clogged fuel pump or filters
is ther water in the oil? it will look milky not clear
best advice get a new battery and have the alt checked and get another oil change if that dont fix most of your problems take it to a mechanic

ok - Step 1. Check the hood of the car first. If you see the words Dodge or the symbol of a "ram" - THEN this is the reason you are having car problems.
Step 2. Trade car above for something that rhymes with Ronda or Boyota.
Step 3. Never take you car for a Free diagostic at AutoZone - because they are 100 % accurate!! ;-)

In terms of a battery not holding its charge, this could be due to the alternator. The alternator recharges ur battery when ur are driving. So if it doesn't hold the charge, this may cause ur car to stall, since u have no power from your battery, (ie ur battery is dead).

Sounds like your battery is on it's last legs. Time for a new one. Corrosion on terminal is sulphate from acid leaking out up terminal post..
