The higher the better as long as it fits

What is is cold cranking rate?
cold cranking amps is the rating on a car battery- the higher the number of cca the stronger the starting power of the battery
When the truck is warm the starter lags when cranking Everything is new Is the timing just a little off This is a 1977 351M?
the problem with your truck is either the battery does not have enough cranking amps, or the starter is beginning to wear out. first time i ever had this problem i put a higher cranking rated battery in and that solved the problem
Could using a car battery with more cranking amps than the original be bad?
No,, you can install a battery with a higher CCA rating. It is still a 12 volt battery so it will work fine.
What happens if you use a larger car battery then recommended?
If the battery will physically fit there is no problem using a higher capacity battery. Of course the voltage remains 12 Volts but there will a higher amperage available for a longer time should it be needed. This could actually be an advantage if there is ever difficulty starting, there will be more starter cranking time before the battery runs down. Think of it as having a larger gas tank, the gas is the same but there is more if needed.
What is the second battery for on a ford E-350 truck?
if you have a seconf battery im assume it is a diesel 2 batteries are used to give the required cranking amps to start a the engine the batteries are coneected in paralal so as toboost amps but keep volts at 12 volts if batteries were connected in series it would boost voltage to 24 and burn out the electrics Yeah, if its a diesel (I have a 1995 7.3l E-350...van, not a truck!) The driver side battery is 800-850 cranking amps, mostly for starting, plus powers some electronics. The passenger side is 500-550 cranking amps and some other electronics. Takes a lot of juice to crank over a diesel, it's a higher compression engine and the compression ignites the fuel rather than a spark plug.
What size battery does a 1993 Chevy s-10 require and if you put a bigger battery in will it cause problems?
Battery size is measure in 2 ways. The actual physical dimensions of the battery and the size in Cold Cranking Amps (CCA). Purchase a battery that is physically the same size as the battery you are replacing or it will not fit. You can purchase a battery with a higher CCA capacity than the one you are replacing. This will cause no problems at all, and will just be a better battery, especially in the winter.
How are Cold Cranking Amps affected below the temperature 0 F?
The battery becomes less efficient as the temp drops. The problem is the vehicle requires more power to start the engine as the temp drops. So, if you live in a cold climate, purchase a battery with a higher CCA reading.
What is the standard cold cranking amps of an AC Delco battery?
"The amperage needed for a battery to crank a car in cold weather varies depending on the type of engine being started. Four-, six-, and eight-cylinder engines have different CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) requirements. The Cubic Inch Displacement (CID) is another factor. A 362 CCA rating should start a four-cylinder engine with a CID of 151, while a eight-cylinder with a CID of 350 would need a battery with a higher 440 CCA rating."

What size battery for 7.3 diesel F-350 1999?
BCI group 34, as long as the battery falls into this dimensionally it will fit. 10.9'' (L) x 6.8'' (W) x 7.5'' (H) and you will need 850 CCA (cold cranking amps) OR HIGHER because the higher the CCA rating is the better your truck will crank in cold weather conditions. hope this helps.
Can you put any sealed battery the same size on my 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser diesel?
Yes, as long as it is the correct voltage and fits and the positive and negative terminals are aligned correctly. However, just make sure you get a battery with at least as many CCA as the battery that came in the vehicle. You can go with a higher CCA battery but not a lower CCA.
Out of ammonia battery acid isopropyl alcohol and water which has a higher pH?
Battery acid has the higher pH.
