Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Maintenance & Servicing Morgan 4/4 1998, battery problem?

Type 036 is not heavy duty, at least not in my book!

Regrettably I can't remember the exact number, it may be 018 (it is 01something though) but there is a battery with the same physical dimensions - so will fit your clamp, but with a higher capacity. Halfords used to say it was the +8 battery, but now they say 70s, 80s, and some 90's Morgans are all 036 fitments. My advice is take a tape measure to your local store as you'll be able to see most types on the shelf. Note not only do you need to get the right size, but also the positive and negative terminals in the right place.

The three wheeler can also take a 036, but I cheated and bought it a clamp for a four wheeled Morgan.
