87 CC Questions

[rick2gun]

A buddy of mine bought a home in the community where I live and did not want the 1987 CC that came with the house so he gave it to me. This was in 2008 so i have had it since then. I am getting ready to put in a new set of Trojan 125's in place of the Duracells that have 5 years and 7 months on them. At the same time I will replace all the solenoids as well since the existing ones are 3-4 years old.

Question 1: I have replaced all the battery cables 5 years ago with 4 gauge. wire. Is there any advantage to moving up to 2 gauge on the batteries

Question 2: Anybody have an comments on also replacing the 3 resistor coils on the solenoids. They are rusty but they are working.

Thanks for your help!
