OK Larry, lets take a hypothetical situation. Let's assume that my friend with the bad battery had an identical battery in his shed and it had the same volt values under the same test load conditions. If we connect it to the other battery in series, I think we would both agree that the air compressor would start. If we connect it parallel, what would happen? We now have double the available amperage but the same voltage. I would guess the air compressor might start because the voltage in the weak batteries wouldn't suffer as much of a voltage or pressure drop. The required consumption of watts by the starter would be satisfied. So, we can artifically double the amps or volts and get results.

A partially discharged battery is restored to fully charged by raising its voltage. When the volts are not there and the amps are trying to make up the difference, where is the deficiency? It seems like volts. It also seems like amp values are still there or have increased to make up the voltage shortfall.
