Why NOT jump start your F430 and 360?

LOL! A little knowledge can be dangerous. Careful of the advice you get for free.

Capacitors are rated in micro-farads not ohms.

 

Thanks.

I was wondering when someone was going to raise the BS Flag on this thread. Some of what is said here is laughable.

 

I guess I don't understand why hooking up a fresh battery in parallel to the weak one would cause so much damage. Was at Ferrari of New England yesterday. There were portable power cells all over the place to jump cars with

 

OOoops. My bad.. freudian slip of sorts. Resistors vs. capacitors. hehehe

I personally don't care what people do to their cars. It's not my wallet.

 

Duly noted.

Caveat emptor.

 

It should be fine.

 

Never had a problem jumping. Most newer cars are built to regulations, I'd be highly surprised if a simple jump would fry a newer Ferrari.

Corrosion, moisture, galvanization, rust........

Those are more likely culprits.

How many owners regularly check battery leads? Hardly any. That probably is the source of your trouble.

Ferrari build quality can be bad sometimes but not that bad.
