Jump Start Question

I need to jump start my car, and have heard that there are + and ground screws in the engine bay- can anyone confirm and help me locate them?

Alternately, where is the ground I can use in the front by the batter?

Page 300 (or thereabouts) in the owner's manual. I think the 996 might have had a the +/- blocks in the engine compartment but nothing mentioned in owner's manual about the 997.

thxbuff2001 is infamous around these parts
Just use a jumper. Attach both + ends on each car and negative(ground) on each car.

Make sure you REV the car which you will use to jumpstart the porsche.
