Ever wonder how to jump start your car — without exploding yourself into the next zip code?

Our Official Car Talk Guide to Jump Starting Your Car can help prevent that nasty outcome. And, with a little luck, you might just get your car started and be on your way.

We've put our Guide into a handy PDF file, so you can print it out and toss it in your car's glove box. And if it doesn't help get your car started? It's a fabulous fire starter, for those cold winter nights by the side of the road, as you listen to the howls of the wolves as they close in.

Yours in getting on your way,

Tom and Ray
Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers
