Hey all,

As the title state!!! is it possible??
I have no memory reader or something like that.
Old battery is playing up, with starting,
I have a new battery(2 months old) never used, fully charged.
Current battery: 72Ah 380 a
Replacement Battery: 75Ah 700A

could i leave the engine running, take battery out and reconnect the other one?

Car: From Mar 2010 Engine: 1968cc. 120hp.

Regards.

love a straight forward answer............... Thanks.
Without battery there is no control.

No ecu / no spark / no go. As soon as you disconnect that then nothing.

Will also be breaking a live load. I wouldn't want to attempt that
