[QUOTE="XFIRE82, post: 75877, member: 2292"] ...the new one is 650 cold cranking amps, the old was 590, so you have a stronger battery now. No reason to hook up a charger every few days now. Unless you have something that is draining it like a light that is on all the time. Not sure what your car has for a glove box etc, but won't hurt to see if it has a light in it that goes on / off when you open the door. I've seen this happen with under hood or trunk lights that are stuck on all the time and will drain the battery quickly. GM Factory battery cable ends don't always fit a jobber battery posts well, so you did the right thing and stick with a delco battery. [/QUOTE]
