Hi Mike,
Probably the only issue will be the battery cables. The end that attaches to the battery may still be the original "pencil post" type (there are still a few out there) and the cables may not be long enough. If he was using a battery with the positive terminal on the left and yours is on the right (or vice versa), the cables may not reach. It might be best to take jumper cables along and just set your battery next to the bike and jump off of it to the Ambo. Cheers,

Charlie.

 Hi All.

I have what might sound like a dumb question...but here goes.

I'm looking at a 1970 Ambassador for sale tomorrow and I know that the
battery is dead (he's had it in the back of the garage for a while). My
1974 Eldorado is currently using a "Power Pro Lawn and Garden" battery
and I was wondering if I could just take that to the Ambo to try and
start it up.

Anything I should be aware of in attempting to use the Eldo battery for
the Ambo...or are they universal when it comes to batteries.

Thanks!

Mike Cho
1974 Eldo
