Thats some good karma you generated.....kudos

However a little caveat, to avoid killing your own electrical system always Jump another car with your engine OFF.

If it can start your own car then it can certainly start someone elses, and if not then there is a greater issue than just a dead battery.

I learned the hard way in Canada, at night in -20c weather that giving someone a jump with your engine running can over strain your own electrical system (Running 2 cars instead of one) and blew the diodes in my alternator.

My car ran for another couple hours before the battery ran flat while driving and the engine stalled at a stop and left me stranded.

Just saying...


Funny thing though, I had a request for assistance from a "stranded" motorist in front of their own relatives home. She needed fuel (however the car was running) and asked for money $50.

I guess they figured a dude driving a Porsche would have that much behind the seat cushions.

I looked at the 5-8 people at the house she was visiting and thought I'm no fool and went about my business.
(Sounds like a full tank a case of beer and dinner to me)

So Yaa, maybe we can be the stuck up money pinching types under some circumstances. (Proudly maintaining the Tradition of being smart, I selected a Porsche afterall )
