Subject: Alternator boils battery Smells like sewer!!!!!


My 2 month old battery on my truck started stinking like someone steped in dog poo-poo or someone was pumping sewer. Then upon opening the hood I discovered what the smell was and determined that my battery was violenty boiling. It lifted the vent caps up from presure. I then figured my alternator with an internal regulator was over charging and I replaced with a re-man alternator. I re-filled the battery with water as it was below the plates by now. Today we used the truck and it boils the battery over again. Is it the battery that is no good instead of the alternator?It started the engine just fine even without much water if any still in it .IS IT THE BATTERY and not the alternator that is BAD?How do I tell if ti is a bad battery?

Ive never heard of a battery that boils without overcharging it!
Ive got a new alternator and a 2 month old battery.....what else can it be?
