Can Revving in Neutral Charge the Battery?
1 Answers
Yes, as long as the engine is running, the battery is being charged. Turning off electrical devices like the radio and headlights can help, but the response to speed changes is slower compared to manual transmissions. More details are as follows: 1. However, revving the engine wastes fuel. This method should only be used for emergency charging. Prolonged use may prevent the engine from starting, and if the battery is over two years old, it's recommended to replace it. 2. Manual Transmission (MT): A manual transmission, also known as a manual gearbox, requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. 3. If the car cannot start due to a dead battery, do not attempt push-starting or tow-starting. When towing a disabled vehicle, ensure the drive wheels are off the ground to protect the automatic transmission gears from damage.
