Super Jet Battery Size

What are the specs on a battery for a 701 SJ? Having trouble finding this online.

they call for a yb16CL-B. But you can use smaller.

Thanks. Just picked up a new one and now I get one click from the Ebox, no start. Crank turns freely, Ebox freshly built last year, bendix two years old. Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking starter..

just a click could be starter relay. test voltage across relay.

 

[lazyt747]

What points can I touch to test that?

 

[N3vrSat1sfied]

without splitting the ebox you can check voltage at the starter.

Great, going to check this out now.

Holding positive on the starter positive cable and grounding the other, there's no voltage. Seems like a relay for sure now.

what battery did you get? some dont come charged. check battery voltage

 

[lazyt747]

Took the new one back and had my old one tested. It is still good for 300 CCA.

Laid a screw driver over the relay and got nothing. Bad relay?

If u jumped the relay and got nothing then its not the relay. If it cranked while jumped yes it would be the relay sounds like you either have a bad ground or maybe positive lead. Make sure your ground wire from battery to the motor is good n clean. Check your voltage at the battery then at the starter solenoid battery side. Make sure it's the same voltage. If it is u now know that positive lead is good. Take that lead off and tap the side going to the starter. See if it cranks. If not check thebline going to the starter. Could be bad wire or connection

Look for a corroded and broken ground wire. We had one that was split inside the black sleeve coating and the only way we found it was by flexing the ground wire to find the small crack in the sleeve. The wire was shot.
