Seems my battery is on it's last legs....
But what's in the car is Ford style battery with square posts ...
What battery should it be ?
I looked on here and found codes for batteries that are no longer available
Anyone know a standard battery code I can use to buy online ??
You know, I suppose at this juncture, it doesn't really matter too much what battery is supposed to be in there, since it's probably missing the OEM terminals on the leads, since it's got a Ford square post battery in there. Even if it did have the original terminals, they're JIS sized, so it'd be a struggle finding a battery with JIS posts anyway. Just find something that fits, and run with it. Maybe something from Odyssey's Performance Series range?
It has the original connectors on the cables, just bodged to fit square posts....
What battery code is in yours ??

6kg down from the OEM 11-12. you could quite easily go for the smaller one i reckon, cranks just like a fullsize battery
Ended up going for the Jazz battery... 055 code... fits perfect, even uses original mountings....

yuassa ybx 3055 (l/h +) i paid 50€ delivered from germany (on fleabay)
fits exactly, correct cranking amps, little japanese terminals.

I ended up using a Tractor battery, less expensive and plenty of cranking power.
