is my only option to get a boost? i'm so pissed i had so many things to get done today and now i'm friggin stranded....

kick starting isn't really an option cuz i'm here by myself... and the road hasn't been plowed yet pushing a car is damn hard by yourself in the snow...

any other suggestions? anyone?

 

whats it doing.... anything at all??

 

you can hear it almost start the starters working and everything, but it just doesn't seem to want to catch like it almost turns on but then it'll stop....

 

maybe your gasline is frozen, seen that a couple of times before.

 

 

This is definatley a possibility.


How much gas do you have in the tank?

 

doubt it, I think your battery is dead... call CAA or call a buddy for a boost. It's the simplest option to try at this point.

 

yeah most likely dead battery or not enough cranking amps. boost it or battery charger.

 

charger won't help, his BATTERY is DEAD, ie. not accepting a charge unless you left your lights on Alex? Chris, boot over there with some cables and hook the man up!

 

**** i would but its 230, rush hour is coming on . I had this same problem awhile ago, turned out to be a loose battery ground. Also battery charger worked for me when my car was dead

 

Does your car crank fast or slow? If it's slow most likely is your battery. If it's fast then for sure is not your battery. There could be no spark or most likely the case frozen gas line. Put a bottle of gas antifreeze in the gas tank. Try that.

 

i ended up getting it to work after getting a boost, i had half a tank of gas so i know that wasn't the problem (never let the gas run low in the winter )

it still took a few tries tho and i had to give it alot of gas to get it working once the other car was connected, i've never had that happen before... maybe it's time for a new battery? i don't see how it would just stop working all of a sudden, esp after it made it thru the ridiculously cold days we had last week and the week before...

 

6-7 yr old battery and you're asking WHY?? lol

 

it was replaced just before i bought it... motomaster baby! lol i want a yellow top but the $$ just aint flowin right now... damn varsity basketball should pay me!

 

exide orbital from CT alex

 

? is that a battery? never heard of it...

 

yeah its a deep cycle, same **** as the yellow top but less money and imo looks better cause its black and grey.

 

hmmm imma have to look into that for sure

 

or even a red top would be good too

 

yeah Gas Froze.... that Flash point of unleaded gasoline is -97F that means it'll still burn at that temperature...

I doubt it was event that cold out there.
