The question is what caused the battery to die: age, alternator, a severe drain. If the latter two, a new battery won't help.

It was just an old battery...completelly drained...i tried jumping it and havint it recharged...and nothing worked...
I dont really want to spend like $90 on a batterie if I can use the one for the 305 which is...like I said....almost new.

Unless there are some problems with using the more powerfull batterie on that type of car...(overheating maybe)
