[Healeys] Jump starting a pos. earth car using a neg. earth car

[Ed's Shop]

<<Just connect the + terminal to + terminal, and - to -.>>

Absolutely CORRECT, gents.

<<With modern maintenance free batteries the chance of problems associated
with attaching jump cables terminal to terminal is very small.>>

There is no prob possible UNLESS cable(s) insulation(s) have BARED TO
THE WIRE probs.

<<If you are worried, you can attach the positive jumper to the chassis
of your + ground car if it is receiving the juice.>>

NO.  Begging for "electronic(s)" 'oops' (remote but possible).

<<Don't touch one car with one hand and the other with the other at the
same time!!!!!!!>>

Possible, I suppose.

One more thing.  Do NOT let (if by chance both cars chromed bumpered)
touch each other.  Zero 'metal-to-metal' contact allowed.

+ to + = +
- to - = -

K.I.S.S. Rule and it ALWAYS works!
