PA28 Battery replacement
Do you have copper battery cables? My Warrior would disengage the gear like
you described until I got the copper cables put in.

Hey all. I'm pretty certain I've convinced myself that my "bad starter"
and/or bad ring gear are actually my battery going bad. With the skytec
starter, it
makes sense that at high-load, the voltage could drop enough so the
starter solenoid
cannot hold the gear engaged to the flywheel. It pops back out while
cranking on a
compression stroke.
So, what are the thoughts on the different batteries? I'm pretty sure
mine is
the old Gill G35. It's been in there for at least 3.5 years. Any good
replacement
ones that might save weight, etc? FWIW it's a 180hp O-360 so it is high
compression.
Thanks
-Cory
