My battery has been in my car since 98 and it wont hold a charge very well. Im not sure what brand battery to buy. I think i might just pick up a 50 dollar battery from my local parts store. BTW I have a yellow top but people have told me that it wont fit in the marks, that i need a bracket or somethin like that.
 
Get an 800 80A crank Motorcraft, $80 at your dealer and starts like you wouldn't believe, especially in the winter...

You've tried the rest, now get the best.
 
If your going the cheap route, Wal-Mart everstart batteries are good enough because they have a 3-year warranty and you can replace it at any Wal-Mart (mine is an 850 CCR)

But if you have a yellow top stay away from sprawl*mart. throw it in and see if it fits it wont hurt any thing, just take 20 min.
 
i have a wall mart Batter got it last winter works great got my alternator changed same time
i payed 50 bucks for the batter then when to my mechanic for the alternator they are great
 
I've had great luck with Interstate batteries, I have never ever had one die on me, and the ones I have had have outlasted several of the cars they were in.
 
I have ever start in my conti but when I clean the car and keep the doors open, the car wouldn't start. I think I need to replace my battery too
 
is it a motor craft battery thats in there if so chances are its the orignal batter from when the car was new or its the replacment batter from when the car was under warranty or somthing like that and
its time to replace i say you probly what leave you blinker on for like 20 minuts and the cars almost dead or somthing like that right
its time for a new one same thing happened to me
 
Well Im screwed! :Bang I was pulling out of a parking lot with my crappy battery and as soon as i got on the road my radio died, then my A/C/heater control went blank, then my motor started to bog, blinkers wouldnt work, headlights were very very very dim, I got pulled over because i was trying to get home doing 10 over and no headlights i told him that i was having trouble with my alternator/battery system and he let me go. Then today i finally bought a battery(diehard gold). I get home put it in, starts just fine, Uh oh battery light is on. Unbolt the battery terminal and STAAAAALLLL. Crap!!! I knew i should have replaced the battery when i got the car. Now i have to spend another $100 on a &od D**M alternator! :Bang
 
Is it the Battery or the Alternator??/

Hey guys, I was washing my car this morning listening to the radio, when all of a sudden the radio went dead. I tried to turn the car over and it just clicked. The Viper Alarm still worked though. So I am leaning towards the alternator. I jump started it. Then later tonight it's dead again. I believe it is the alternator. What do you think?
 
I've had to replace my alternator since I've got my car. I just got one used from a Lincoln with 40k miles on it. Good enough for now. Only cost $30. Good luck.......I think I might get a new battery now.
 
GMAN, Pop the alt off and take it to a place to have it tested. Do the same with the battery.



People aint lying when they say the marks are FINIKY about battery voltage.
