If your battery is completely dead your best bet would be to remove it and
take it to Auto Zone or some other parts place.

They can charge it and test it to make sure it isn't completely gone.  If it
is then you will have to get a new battery anyway.

If you use the jump box on a completely dead battery your alternator has to
work overtime to compensate, if it will at all.

Hey there.  My car has sat alone in the snow for a few months now.  
Time to get it up and running.  I was going to have it towed to PJ 
Grady's, but maybe I should try first to get it started.  Battery is 
now completely dead, but it had starter problems even before that 
happened.

I've never jumped the car myself...always had help.  I have a battery 
pack for it.  What do I do again?
