Fitted a new Battery as the old battery

2nd March 2013
This year as normal I am replacing my battery in my buggy. I have been doing this regularly as I am finding that not using the buggy for half the year and running the alarm on the buggy has had its toll on batteries. The new battery I fitted had a slightly bigger handle as it was an Exide. This caused an issue with the bolts on the connectors meaning the battery box lid would not fit. I was intending to cut these down but found to bolts from a pair of skate wheels that fitted flush and removed the problem totally . The new battery allowed the engine to fire straight up.



The engine started well . I was quite pleased about this as last year I had to replace the ignition lead set. I took the buggy out for a run down to the beach. It was a gorgeous sunny day.
