Since a bunch of us have had our OEM batteries go lately....
As mine did....I replaced the OEM with an Interstate MPT-91 and it works great. ($95.00) If you get this battery, don't forget to get the vent tube kit.
I took the battery and unscrewed the plastic cap screws (6 total) and poured in some distilled water. (the battery appeared to be almost completely dry) I put in on the trickle charger for approx 6+ hours and tested it out.
The funny thing is look at the pics for where it's going to be used. Our Yale forklift (with 8,000lb lift cap.) It was in need of a battery and mounted up perfectly. It's now starting a Chrysler 3.8L straight line 6 cylinder propane engine!!!
The S4 battery has been working great for over a week now!!

I just may very well do so.....Thinking of StaSIS Track Sports : )
Anyone want to buy my Vortrag/ StaSIS fixed height setup?
Linear springs at 450 front & 500 rear.
Custom valved Koni's with external dampening adjustment.

Yep, allows you to hook up the OEM battery vent/breather hose to the Interstate batt.
It's a little adaptor hose set. Very simple to hook up. Cost is $3.00 for the kit.
