So, I have a 1985 Case international 385 and last week the battery went dead so I replaced it. The old battery was small and was purchased by the previous owner. I replaced it with a larger Deka 950 cranking amps.
While starting after instaling the new battery, the starter made a new sound and today I guess it gave out. When I turn the ignition key on I get dash lights but no spinning in the starter.
I am guessing The new battery is too powerful for the old starter. Is there a new starter that will handle the 950 cranking amps or do I need to buy a smaller battery and a new starter?
Thanks!
