If you look at the pic he uploaded (post 17), you will see he really went with a group 35. Not sure why he kept refering to it as a 35R.

Optima 34Rs (they also make a 34) have nice big 34R raised lettering next to one of the posts, and I bet the label clearly says 34R, just like the pics posted here say model 35 on the label and have raised letter 35 next to the negative post.

"Part #'s" are vendor specific and have nothing to do with the size.

I also noticed I get a really poor mpg. I get around ~150 miles on a tank.
I've got new plugs, new wires and new coils, new air filter.
So I'm wondering if I'm getting misfires, or if something else is wrong like a bad cat ?
What do I need to read codes from the ecu and is there a way to test the cat ?

Hmm, if I could avoid buying a device ...
Will they pull the codes for me at an autozone? I've heard somewhere that they weren't doing that anymore.
Is there something I could do myself to test if my cat converter is ok ? (with not much knowledge, and even less tools)
