Subject: RE: BS: Jump starting an engine
If it's just a quick jump start then go for it... What it will do is make your starter motor turn twice as fast... Won't hurt either the 12V or 6V battery as long as both systems are negative ground... But do it fast... Don't think you'll just let the 12V system recharge the 6V battery... Get the engine started and then let the 6V generator/alternator do the rest...
