Battery Advice 1993 GTS

[russrio2]

Hi,

I need a Battery for a 1993 SeaDoo GTS 570cc...
The Old Battery was 12volts 19amps...
When I look up in the sea doo service manual that is correct. When I use vendors sites they recomend 12v 18amps..
What is the correct battery for this Jetski?

Also is AGM they way to go and what Brand is the best.. Hows Westco batteries?

Thanks

Russ

I recommend a AGM (Advanced Glass Matt) Battery. It is better than a Gel Cell and it won't crack and cause problems when it get hot, like the Gel Cell. The AGM is the newest thing on the market that replaces the Gel Cell. The model # is YTX20H-BI, made by Interstate batteries. This battery has a 310amp Cold Cranking power, that is the highest available. It won't let you down, when you need starting power. This battery retails for $87.95.

What about the Amps.. Does this make a difference?..
19amp verse 18amp

 

[kustomkarl]

Cold cranking power is the key...
This battery will have more than enough.
