Phil Townsend Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I have had my 2000 for 10 years with the battery that the PO had, and I think it is getting to the point where I need a new one as the starting is getting sluggish. The current one is a 063 which has a CCA of 380, but for my MGB I have a 075 which has a CCA of 550, although I'd need to juggle the connections as they are on the opposite side. What battery do others on here use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPearce Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 The Triumph engine isn't as much of a lump as the B-series. I no longer have a 2500 but I still have three Triumphs, two with the 2L engine. On all of them I use an 063 battery. It's well up to the job.

Phil Townsend Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Thanks Rob. As I say this one has lasted 10 years plus POs use, and started fine this morning at 0700 after 1 week of no use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glang Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 What make of battery is it (my money is on it being German)? I think the same again if you can get it would be a good idea especially as life in a classic car is generally quite tough on batteries!

Phil Townsend Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 I'd have to look, but it is a good idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
