Might be a daft question but i have a feeling a derv will over surge the petrol (or something due to the bigger battery/starting amps etc..

Just that my Calibra is dead (Due to working on it for ther past 6 weeks being sat dorment and i didnt disconnect the battery)! lol....and my dads Vec CDTi 1.9 is what i would be using to jump it, if its ok and safe enough?

Any ideas anyone?

i do it all the time just never start the 1st car while the leads are on the 2nd car, all ways start 1st car then put the leads on
