battery trouble?
Ok just want to know a few peoples thoughts...went to go start my jeep it was dead absolutley nothing....put the booster pack on it it fired right up.....take the booster pack of it stays running does this clearly sound like a junk battery? Because if the alternator was bad and the battery it would just shut off correct? I know jeeps have wiring issues but just would like.peoples thoughts thanx guys in adavance

Also the vehicle runs mostly off the alternator once it is running correct? And it is possible for the battery to not get a charge if it is no good? I've been noticing the jeep being a bit funky the past couple days so the battery could have finally junked.out
