"have the battery tested."
I'm still confused about this? When you ask questions on the forums you must divulge ALL of the information you have if you want good informed responses back. Saying stuff like I had it jumped is not at all the same thing as plugging in a cigarette lighter charger.
I'm also fairly baffled that you drive a manual and do not know or have never tried to push start it. That was one of the first lessons I received in my first car. Not calling you out or anything.... just saying I'm really surprised. Oh well everyone has to learn somehow I suppose. Good luck.

My sister got her first car when she was 16 (I was 12). My dad took us both out and taught us how to drive the car. His first thing was showing us the grabbing point of the clutch and how to use that to know how much gas to give it. Then it was the push start/rolling start, then it was learning how to hold the car on a hill with minimal gas.

Oh, and isLoTz, do not just connect the jumper cables from one battery to the other. Hydrogen explodes when you show it a spark.

anyways, jump using jump cables between cars, leave the other car on and go start your car.
take the car for a blast on the interstate for half hour after you start it up, go to autozone test the battery out
batteries dont always need to be replaced when they are dead unless there are symptoms that its not holding charge, they are rechargable.
