It calls for a 700ca and I bought a 875ca.

they at the instant are not. the objective of the two forms of batteries are very diverse. The rankings reflect this. A motor vehicle battery is used to grant a multitude of present day for an rather little while to start the engine, afterwhich the battery is at the instant recharged with the aid of the alternator. The chilly cranking amps tells you techniques many amps this huge quantity is. learn this to customary alkaline batteries, which grant a smaller present day over an extendend time and are not rechargeable. The amp hours enable you comprehend techniques lots capability may be further, or how long the batteries will final. this is not of pastime with vehicle batteries--anybody can enable you comprehend techniques directly a motor vehicle battery dies in case you bypass away the headlights on with out the engine working: too quickly.

A higher cranking amp battery will not do any harm to any electrical system of any car.All that is telling you is that is would have more power to turn over the engine.

don't worry about it.i've been a mechanic for over 20 yrs,and have personally installed a 1200 ca tractor trailer in a 4 cyl. ford ranger and drove for years.your electrical system will only draw what it needs from the battery.a battery only stores power.

Why did you do that. I'm not a mechanic, but that's why we're are supposed to take the old battery in when we get a new one. I wouldn't want to chance wrecking the computer and all those electronic circuits by giving them a jolt they don't like.
