Sometimes I like to sit in my car and listen to music when I get somewhere or get home, I always run the engine at idle though because I don't want to burn the battery out.
BUT, from what I remember when starting a manual vehicle with a dead battery is that you have to pop it in gear while moving to jump start the battery, does this mean the alternator doesn't work unless you're in gear and that idling will cause battery consumption?
