Q – I am itching to drive my car and I went out to start it. The battery was dead. I know you covered it last year but please just explain it briefly. Dave
A – Simple.
1) Don’t jump start the car and expect the alternator to charge it, it may FRY.
2) Charge the battery with jumper cables and another car for about 15 minutes.
3) After you have some voltage in the battery, still don’t start it. Put it on a slow 10 to 15 amp charge at least overnight to build up the battery.
4) Then start it up and let it warm up while you check the tire pressures.
5) Air up the tires, take it out and have a ball. MC
