If the **** hits the fan you’d better have a points ignition because magnetic pulse solid state type stuff is gonna be EMP. Dead. I keep a couple points ignitions around just in case because most likely attack on Us is an EMP
These are open questions , not just pointed at any single individual.
as follows

1. Will your 12v batteries survive EMP , to start your car ?
I'm gonna say no , but I'm not a scientist.

2. Can you roll start the car with a complete dead battery , or no battery at all ?

3. If it will roll start , how far can it be driven without a battery ?

4. Have any of you put this to an actual real world test ?

I have never tried this , but don't think it will work on late 60 - early 70 American cars.
Bmans bug might go with a generator charging system if the condenser doesn't fry from EMP.
And long hill to roll crank to get the generator buzzing.


I do know what will work.
A full mechanical VW Diesel from 1979 - 1992.
No battery needed and will run all day after roll starting. (with fuel solenoid spring removed - aka full on)
Will roll crank within 25 feet pushing it yourself on flat ground (and not arctic cold outside)
No ignition system or electricals required
