CXY T 8

Just Googled that. No information found on such a product.

  • CXY T13 = 2000A
  • CXY T15 = 3000A

So I can only assume a CXY T8 is to jump start a skate board 🤣

I reckon it's T18.  Which is 1000A lol.

And to answer the question, generally it's safe to jump start modern cars, Ford even recommended it in the handbook.  On rare occasions it can spike some of the modules but you would have to be very unlucky for that.
