Lee Van Dyke asked what type of battery to use in a KR with a 1835 VW engine.
Lee, I have a 1835 Great Plains VW in my KR-2. I have a 14 ampere-hour battery that I bought from B and C Specialty. It is a sealed starved electolyte lead battery. It is 5.88 inches wide, 5.63 inches high, and 3.43 inches deep. It has plenty of crank power for my VW and didn't have to be recharged while I was checking all of the electrical and running the engine on the starter to lube everything before I started it for the first time. Their part number was BC114-1 and the cost was $112 including shipping. You can see their selection of batteries at b and c specialty.com.
