Hazelton, Kansas
Terry,

We all know batteries can blow up, and a fault inside the case is a good way to do it. So be careful.

I once twisted a terminal, blew the top off the battery and gave myself a splatter of acid in the face. Hydrogen has a very wide range of mixtures at which it can explode. It also has a very high flame speed that gives it a unique, sharp crack.

I would encourage you to replace it ASAP. Also, you might want to remove the cable from the GOOD terminal first, to cut the chance of sparking inside the case.

Regards.

MDS
