Frost bite. Took longer trying to help a stranger with their car last night than expected. Didn't work.
After a nights sleep... ow. It's swollen and painful.
And I wonder if maybe the fuel line must have been frozen or something. USB jump starters AND hooking up the battery directly to a car battery didn't work. Car would turn a few times but not start. Yes, we did wait a few minutes before trying to turn the car several times to give the battery a chance to have a little more juice.
Is there something else I could have tried to help last night? Our only recourse after 15 minutes was to tell the stranger that they needed to call a tow truck. Pushed the accelerator while trying to start the car or something?
