Group size is the physical size of the battery. 86 series tractors have two 12-volt batteries connected in parallel. With this setup, if each 12-volt battery has 500 CCA, you get an output of 12 volts and 1000 CCA. 06, 26, 56, and 66 series diesels had two 6-volt batteries connected in series. This way, total output would be 12 volts, but the CCA's would stay the same. The advantage of this setup is more reserve power. You need to take your old batteries in for recycling when you get new ones anyway, so just have them give you the same thing as you have now, hook them up the same way as the old ones were, and you should be fine. A 986 should start no problem on a 40 degree day if it has a block heater or a tank heater. If not, give it a shot of ether. This engine does not have glow plugs. If new batteries don't solve your problem, post back for more help.
