NO! ALWAYS run positive to positive! And be careful, don't let the bumpers touch.

Subject: IML: Jumping 6 volts from 12 volts

Imperialists,

 

    In a positive ground six volt system, when jumping the car from a modern 12 volt system, does one reverse the polarity, i.e., pos to neg and neg to pos., in order to jump start?
