Evinrude 1989 SPL Battery Question

[B.autry4711A]

Hello all,<br /><br />I just got my battery tested at O'Reilly's auto parts today. They told me the battery is bad. My question is I found one on the Air Force base a Energizer marine battery. Is 500 cold cranking amps powerful enough to start the Evinrude engine model E88MSLCER 88 Horsepower SPL V-4? The price is $41.95. They have a 675 cold cranking amps for $64.95. Wasn't sure. Thanks for the help

Bubba,<br />I would go with the 675 that gives you the reserve and longevity you will want and need. Besides one thing I would never skimp on is a battery. Good luck..Fly high.<br />Semper Fi<br />Gen Mech
