Anyone know what B&S recommends as far as cranking amps for a 17.5 hp engine and a 21 HP?
Will any battery do? The only reason I ask is some of the cheaper batteries have lower CCAs.
Speaking of batteries. The last "crappy" battery I bought was from AutoZone. I put it on a Snapper and by next spring it was done for. So I used the recoil starter for the next 8 years until I bought a new mower. I'm more careful now. Whenever I put my mowers up after mowing season, I pull the battery off, bring it in my garage and hook it to a trickle charger to it.
Looks like Wal-Mart has the best price going on batteries at around $30. I wouldn't even considering buying a new battery but neither mower has a recoil starter. That's something I miss not having.
