Think my battery is done. It's old and not holding charge. Leaving the door open for a few minutes drains it. Can I go with a larger battery? Would the alternator be able to keep up? Any other downsides? I think the metal clamp that holds the battery can be slid sideways to accommodate a bigger one?
