[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1465640, member: 19880"] ^^^ Yes, car not running. Only time you risk blowing up a battery is if there is a dead short - an uncommon failure mode. On an old tired battery (not just discharged) it shouldn't be a problem. Seems that it has some life since OP mentioned the fuel pump coming on etc. I have a small lithium jump pack I use for this sort of thing. It can provide lots of amps to turn over almost any engine but capacity isn't great if extended cranking is required to overcome a fuel issue such as a flooded condition. [/QUOTE]
