[QUOTE="teejay, post: 183600, member: 51"] batt tech AC Delco or Delkor? both are difirent manufacturers and thus one is of course the original one theo ther a copy.....its sounds the same if pronounced by my mech...... but price is about double comparig both i.e. 250 vs 550 question is where is your battery located? if its in front in the engine bay, you can either opt for the very rare insulated MF battery, hence a high price, but it should last 5 years or more these days, MF batteries are sealed as most cars have the battery in the boot or rear seat, so it last longer , as theres less heat to kill it MF battery technology has to disspate heat while maitianing the liquid, some deisgns better than others, there was one brand, which i cannot remember, it lasted me 4 years, had a insulation and dissipation design, dissipate heat from internals and insulate heat from outside, perfect for engine bay mounted locations other than that don't bother as it will only last 1-2 years max......
