<\/a>Out with the old…<\/p><\/div>\n
When the time came in 2021 to replace the battery I had bought in 2016 (and it should’ve been replaced long ago), I just couldn’t resist the temptation of not having to deal with topping off the water level again, a twice-or-more time per year ritual.\u00a0 The price was only like $15 more for the AGM, so I couldn’t *not*, you know?<\/p>\n
<\/a>…in with the new!<\/p><\/div>\n
No more more over-flow tube and all the hassle.\u00a0 No more distilled water top-offs.\u00a0 Heck, the connectors are even easier to use.\u00a0 And, the size is EXACT, if you use the models I used.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Exact replacement fit!<\/p><\/div>\n
When I asked the folks at Auto-zone, I assumed there was no way that the KZ750 twin would be in their database for proper matches…\u00a0 I was half-right: while the ’78 KZ750 Twin is not listed, there, is a listing for an ’80 750 “B” model that was wrong.\u00a0 On the other hand, there was a valid\/correct listing for the ’80 KZ750 G.. and since the ’80 G is a sister model to the ’78 B, that’s what we went with and it was a perfect match replacement.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Perfect match!<\/p><\/div>\n
The old model is a “CB14L-A2FP”, and the new model is a Duralast Gold ETX15L.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Finally installed.<\/p><\/div>\n
So I thought I’d let y’all know.\u00a0 But you probably switch years ago anyway…\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Yep, it’s true.\u00a0 After almost 20 years, I finally decided to turn in my Lead-Acid battery for an Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) battery. When the time came in 2021 to replace the battery I had bought in 2016 (and it…
