No. As long as the battery is a 12 volt battery the physical size of the battery does not matter. It can have 300 CCA or 600 CCA. It will still start the engine and will not damage the starter. The reason there are different sizes is so the fit in the battery space snugly and the battery post are oriented properly.

Can you charge a big tractor battery called a d size battery with a 12 volt battery charger.2 or 6 amp?

No, you cannot charge a D-size battery with a 12-volt battery charger designed for larger batteries like a tractor battery. D-size batteries are typically smaller, often 1.5 volts each, and are not rechargeable unless specifically marked as such. Additionally, using a charger with the wrong voltage or current rating can damage the battery or create safety hazards. Always use a charger designed for the specific battery type.


Will the wrong size battery cause sluggish start in 1999 Malibu?

Not really as long as you have the correct size 12 volt battery the CCA rating will not effect the batteries initial ability to start the engine. It may not be able to turn the engine over as long as a higher rated battery but it will start the engine if all is as it should be. A sluggish start sounds like you may have a starter going bad.
