FAQs about the Yuasa YBX3063
What is the difference to the standard battery (Type 012 / L1)?
The difference is in the height.
- YBX3063 (LB1): Height 175 mm.
- YBX3012 (L1): Height 190 mm. Many vehicles (especially Ford) require the flat version (175 mm), otherwise the bracket or cover will not fit. The YBX3063 is the right choice here.
Do I have "thin" or "thick" terminals?
The YBX3063 has thick standard terminals (T1). The diameter of the positive terminal is approx. 19.5 mm (thumb thickness). This is the standard for almost all European cars. If your terminal clamps are very small (approx. 14 mm, like a little finger), you need an Asian JIS battery, not this model.
Will the battery fit if my old one was called "063"?
Yes, absolutely. The code "063" is the common UK short designation for this battery type (LB1). If this number is on your old battery, the YBX3063 is the direct 1-to-1 replacement with identical dimensions.
Is the battery suitable for start-stop?
No. The YBX3063 is a maintenance-free wet battery. It is not suitable for the high cycle stress of start-stop systems (not even for "basic" start-stop). For this you need an EFB battery (e.g. Yuasa YBX7063).
