    So I bought a Everstart ES12BS from Walmart and it don't fit except for sideways.
    It should be 5" wide instead of 6" wide. That's supposed to be the one that fits.
    Has anyone else ran into this problem?

    I looked at a website and called the Walmart service department and that's what they
    recommended . Looks like they gave me the wrong one.
    So is the ES14LA2 a Everstart?
    Never mind I see the link you put up

    I don't think there's anyway a 3 9/16 will fit
    It will have to 2 3/4 or less

    12N-12A-4A /12V 12AH

    not having a core I paid about 70$ at the parts store for a lead acid battery

    ebay I got an AGM battery for 60$ no core charge


    some ebay acid batteries do not come with acid
