my second optima just took a dump on me :banghead: any suggestions would be nice, im thinking diehard! yes no!?!?
Odyssey has good batteries, rather expensive, but Sears Platinum DieHards are manufactured by Odyssey and relabeled for Sears. They go on sale periodically, regular and Marine versions, but are less expensive even at the regular price.
its has been siting for about 6 months but try to tire it on once a month car has a kill switch and a battery tender year aroundHow often do you drive it, how long does it sit , between starts?
its a red top, as was the last one. Both were garbage by the second yearWhat color optima did you have go bad. Ive had a yellow for 6 years now no trouble with it. I would buy another, no acid for me.

Group 24 Costco Kirkland. Cheap,light,good battery. Great replacement warranty. Take the stickers off and go.
Do you have the GROUP number (i.e. 4-5-or-6?) that Costco uses these batteries?
Looking at the Kirkland book that lists all the batteries by car manufacturer, the A bodies from the 1969 - 72 era were not listed.
I'm ready to buy a Kirkland - Costco battery this week - IF - I can determine the correct GROUP number that will fit properly.
BTW my car is a factory 1971 Duster 340...
Thanks in advance ....
P.S. -- A friend mentioned that some of the Costco Tire Centers are now selling Interstate batteries direct to members.
