Amaron battery

It's why a battery on its last leg would suddenly die after being left unused for a few days or even just a few hours.

that's how my batteries die.
i couldn't start the car, a few hours after i turned off the engine.
once, i couldn't start it, 10 minutes after i shut off the engine. nagpa-tulak ako sa mga gaards...

My contingency is a pair of jumper cables.... A/T kasi.

OOT: Back in my youth, Diesels can go everywhere without a battery. My dad's then "big body" Ford Fiera went several weeks with a dead battery. Tinutulak lang nung mga pahinante. I know because yan din pang hatid-sundo sa akin sa school for a while. I had to seat up front because it's a delivery/closed van. In retrospect, that infernal vehicle had no seat belts, no doors, and the only thing between you and the outside world was a 1-inch stainless hand rail.

^ The Perkins diesel that used to be a genset motor. Most diesels today could still run without battery esp those with mechanical injection pumps.

Yup. That goes without saying. Modern engines in general have gone to rely on electronics for better reliability, efficiency, and emissions control. Though if you push them, I'm sure they'll still run fine without a battery. But in any case, it is not recommended.
