jumped and runs when throttled.Wont idle? !999 Dodge Durango 4x4. Went to start car, the battery was dead and the interior was making all the wrong noises. There was a constant clicking coming from under the battery on the left fender well. Finally after hooking up jumper cables the car started cranking very slowly and only started when I gave it alot of gas. The engine continued running as long as I had my foot on the gas.
