its just using the battery power so yeah you can, could jump start your truck with a lawn mower if you wanted to
i had to jump start mine one time with an altima. it worked no problem. i have also push started it
does it matter ...which battery u use
nope just hook it up
thanks for the info:thumbsup

it doesn't work that well, not enough juice in the mower... do'nt ask how i know :w: but you can off of your camper batteries :hyper:

:lol3::lol3::rof:rof:rof i too know what ur talking about:w:
So which battery is best? I would think the one going to the starter...aka the "starting battery. Or does it matter?"
doesn't really matter which one you go to, i typically go to the closest one to the car that's jumping you or visa-versa
I guess it depends on how big a mower you have....

off topic but...how is that exhaust brake working out for you? what applications do you use it for? is it like a jake brake?
