I bought a 95 Sunbird equipped with a 4.3l volvo engine that is in great shape, but with no manual. The battery that is in it has 875cca's. which seems like a huge battery to me. Does anyone know the required size battery I should get?? Thanks

Re: volvo battery requirements

You could probably get by witha 450cca,........

But,....... With that said,.......
You'd be Nuts to buy a Smaller battery than what's there Now.........

With Batteries,..... The More reserve power there is,..... The Better off you'll be..........

Thanks Bond-o, you are right of course. I wish I could find a manual for this boat (I have a Volvo manual)

Agreed - the best battery is the biggest one you have room for.
