Title: Jump Starting.
Post by gemeg22171 on Dec 16^th, 2011, 11:19am

I need to jump start one of my 2.9's from the other one.
Is it really not advisable to connect batteries + to +
and neg to neg. Where abouts is the engine lifting
bracket? What does it look like? (For an earth).

Regret I have zero mechanical or electrical knowledge.

Ta much, Brian.

Yep batteries + to + first, then booster battery – to engine bracket. So sez owner's handbook ;D

Squeeze and wiggle croc clips to make sure of a good connection when you put each one on.
