Hi
Can anyone tell me if I can put a 70 amp battery in a 2001 1.8 focus. I just happen to have an almost new one going spare in my shed and the one in the car is getting on a bit.
cheers
 
Hi and welcome. What is the AMP rating of the existing battery?

You can put the new battery in, providing it fits. There will only be an issue if the AMP rating is a lot less than the original.
 
Hi
The recommended battery for this car is 54 to 60 amps.Not knowing too much about car electrics I was just wondering whether the charging system would have to work harder to charge the 70 amp battery
cheers
