My starter battery is not holding a charge despite good water level and clean terminals, etc. I have an extra deep cycle battery that hold a charge well. When the starter battery was starting to go, I even used the extra deep cycle to jump it.
I have a 70 horse motor that starts almost instantly, and as I said, starts almost instantly when I'm jumping off the extra deep cycle.
So I was thinking of simply replacing the old starting battery with the extra deep cycle. This would save me a bit of money, rather than buying a new starter battery.
Is this OK to do, or am I setting myself up for some unknown problem.
Thanks,
