YM1510 battery upgrade?

[michigandon]

Has anyone figured out a way to install a bigger battery in a 1510? That wimpy little lawn tractor battery just ain't cuttin the mustard this time of year, and it doesn't appear to be physically possible to install anything bigger.

Hook a Booster Pack up to it and the starter FLYS! Any and all input greatly appreciated.

A higher CCA battery doesn't necessarily have to be bigger.

We used to put "normal" size batteries in the 1510 all of the time. You just have to smash down the little sheet metal tabs that held the smaller battery and your ready to go. You can then use a good heavy bungie strap to hold the battery down- or get fancy and make a nice bracket. You will need to put the standard terminals on the end of the wires for the full size battery. Any local parts store will have those too.
