if you start with low speed on the drill. You will be fine
Yeah I manage to sort it all now and have run it a good dozen times, my car won't tick over with a low powered drill. I've tried a 12 and 14.4V fully charged in reverse but won't cut it, barely ticks over the engine. I'm currently using a heavy duty 1000v power drill that plugs in the wall until I order an electric starter, luckily the drill has gears so can run it at half power and the car will start in less than 2 mins after priming it
