How to start a Buick GL8 when the battery is dead?
1 Answers
If the Buick GL8 vehicle runs out of power, you can use jumper cables to connect to another car's battery or use an external battery to jump-start the engine. Open the vehicle's front hood, locate the positive terminal under the left cover of the engine compartment fuse box, and remove the cover. The negative grounding point is the engine block or an engine mounting bolt. The grounding point should be as far away as possible from the discharged battery. Place the transmission in P (Park) position, and engage the parking brake. Turn the ignition switch to the off position and turn off all lights and accessories in the vehicle.
