sky jumper
Thread starter
oh yes I tried that. revved it way up, held it there for a bit, etc. the problem may have been corrsion on the jumper vehicle's battery terminals preventing good connection, combined with the crappy clamps on the $8 menards cables. I tried grounding to a chunk of metal on the engine block but couldn't reach it. was too lazy to clean up the terminals.When jumping the car, have the car that is running raise the rpms to 2500...wait about 2 minutes..then try to start the dead car, ive never seen where this did not work, even with crappy cables
