## Check this before ordering the Exide AGM12-6

- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 90 A or less, the AGM12-6 covers your engine.
- Your current battery should say about 6 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- The AGM12-6 has the positive terminal on the left: compare it with your current battery.
- The AGM12-6 needs 150 × 90 × 95 mm of space: measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
