I have a problem every once in a while when I leave my car (98 Honda Civic) sitting for 12+ hours then when I go out the next morning to start it, it takes a second for it to start up. Ive checked the wiring on my amp and e/t seems fine. It seems like the battery is weak but not dead. ut my SRS light came on and could that be a problem.
so you have a yellow top and are having problems cranking your car or are you asking if a yellow top will help??
the Optima yellow top isn't a very strong cranking battery, its a deep cycle, thats meant for use whith the engine off or for strong surges of power. it resists building any kind of memory or being damaged as easily from discharges. it also has less CCA then say the red top, which is a starter battery.
Yea, I have the yellow top. That is what I thought, so could I just get a regular starting battery and then use the yellow top JUST for the system?? Thanks Alot

Correct; but a yellow is still far superior to a redtop! it also will start up a truck in any weather!! so I suggest he stick with yellows
