I just recently bought a battery from Advance Auto Parts (AutoCraft Gold Battery, Group Size 34/78, 800 CCA) and since it's been installed it takes extra cranks to install. If the jeep is warmed up, it starts after 1 or 2 cranks. My previous battery started right up. Any suggestions why this is? The jeep is a 2001. Thanks
