selecting the correct battery S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray Niblett on  Mon Jan 28 10:53 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I wonder if the dealer got it backwards? The normally aspirated
has a higher compression ratio so it should be harder to turn over.
In theory, the turbo engine turns over easier and would need less
cold-cranking power. Well, makes sense to me but is is just a theory.

I'd keep the Interstate. There were two sizes available when I got
mine and I went for the smaller size on my 98 T5M. Two winters
with no problems. (We don't see anything below 30 degrees, though.)
