Thanks for the replies!
At this point it seems to be tied as to if it truly is bad or not. I will probably run it with the marine if all its doing is hurting the batteries that I need to replace anyway, until I can get the batteries replaced. Unless I can be convinced otherwise. I am open to this if there is good reason not to.

If i do convert to the 6 8v batteries I dont think I have to cut the battery tray because on the 2008 precedent there was an option for the 8v batts so the tray will accept them as is. Is this true? Will I need anything else besides 2 more cables?

Thanks again for the help
