Hi all,
The car hasn't been used allot this summer. Sometimes just once or twice a week but always ran fine. It wouldn't start one morning so I boosted it with my other car and all was well until I shut it off and tried to restart it. Had a friend look at it in the driveway and assured me it was the battery.
So I bought a new battery and put it in. Problem solved. I drove the car every other day for a week and then didn't use the car anymore for about a week. Now it won't start again.
I guess my buddy was wrong. Only problem is I can't even boost it anymore to get it to a garage. With the booster cables hooked up it will turn over for a second and then nothing.
Somebody suggested leaving the cables on for 15 or 20 minutes before trying. Is that hard on the battery in the car that's doing the boosting?
Thanks, Sherman
