Donated my battery to stepson as a swap the other week. Type 063 replaces original 2 x 6 volt ones. Got a new one today after tiring of starter handle even though car starts readily on it.
On the way back I swear the car went faster and safely reached 50mph several times without a fuss. Could the coil be making a better job of sparking now? The old one wouldn't even take a charge.
This is why I love my car...it's a creature.
