replacment
i tried to start my car today and the battery took forever to turn over. i just thought it took forever becuase it was -15 today. then i smelt really bad fumes and co2. i then realized i pretty much flooded my engine. i figured i should check the battery after it did this 3 times in 4 hours time.
my battery rated at 7.2 and was made in 1997. it was a 3 yr battey made by interstate. damn good battery if last double it was supposed to so i bought a 5yr interstate battery. i hope it last a good 10. the only problem i had getting the battery out was i was so god damn cold. kept dropping the wrench becuase it was damn cold. I HATE SNOW! we got 2 inches. |

it has got to be the battery. Some batteries just dont do well on cold start. Check the voltage.....
