OK, so tomorrow I'll go and give the engine a bit of a lift as it's not nice this freezing weather.

Lol advanced is when you can push start it yourself by running it down the road single handed and jumping in at the last second. I used to have an old escort where I kept leaving the lights on it was more or less second nature in the end

One of the downsides of an auto though I guess can't do that

The way I normally do it is touch the negative to chassis / metal parts until you find good sparks and connect it to that, unless of course that place happens to be coloured red!
