    Jump Start Hmmwv?

    That was the question. Do you need to have batteries in the vehicle (dead ones) to even use the slave cable jump pack.

A vehicle would never restart without batteries. So anyone would assume that it would not start because batteries are not...

    I have another question. Can you start a Hmmwv with no batteries and have a slave cable jump pack as they did on govplanet. Or do you need to have batteries in then put the jump pack slave cable deal. Just wondering if I should make a claim?

    Jump Start Hmmwv?

    Is it possible to jump a Hmmwv with a jump pack or packs? Have a vehicle being dropped off at my house and I'm assuming that it's going to be dead. If there is a way, detailed directions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Pat
