    Jump Start Gone Wrong

    Hi All, I have a C220 CDI 2003, it wouldn't start so my helpful neighbour said he would give me a jump start. Unfortunately he attached the leads the wrong way around on my car.

    600 or 800 Amp jump leads?

    My car battery is rated at 730 Amps. I presume this is the maximum current drawn? So do I assume I need 800 A rated jump leads? The reason I ask is that 800A leads are a lot more expensive than 600A, so would rather buy the 600A if they're good enough. Thanks.
