Re: Jumpstarting
If you lived on central coast I would do it for you with my patrol van as I am an NRMA patrolman , you should be careful still as it has a computer , best way to do it is connect pos + to battery , then neg - to engine earth usually engine lifting bracket is good . then start car under donor battery leave running for approx 5 to 8 min to get a charge in car battery , once you have a charge in your battery turn off your car then disconnect donor battery and restart your car on cars own battery , u will be fine then, if car still wont start re do process as stated and leave running longer on donor battery as this stops computer being spiked and giving computer a voltage surge if u disconnect while running . or get battery checked if cells ok if still having problems
