Rep Power: 313 thanks NeonImpact for the diy...... the way I do just put the positive with positive and negative with negative ... cause just a few minutes ago my uncle's car would'nt start so I told him I'll give him a jump start and my mother caught a fit saying that doing that will mess my car up because she said her friend did that and her car got messed up and she had to pay over $700 I never herd that before.
