You must know the battery's health,in a pinch you can hook up a trickle charger.until it your car starts about 30 min starts,then use a voltmeter, test the battery by setting your meter to test 12 volts dc.If your battery voltage and .. with engine at idle battery voltage should be a above battery voltage 12.5 volts closer to 14.5-16 volts max
