I need a new battery for the 91 it looks like. I have an old Optima in there, and I want to stay with that since it faired so well for almost 10 years. I killed that Red top so many times and I could not believe it held a charge once I got the charger on it again. Sadly it looks like it is low voltage now and may be the source of some of my warm cranking problems.
So is it worth getting the yellow top over the red? Red top says it has a higher CCA rating, I would think that would be better but I am not positive.
