I went to start my truck like 5 hours after using it and it was dead. i tried to jump it with another vehical but still no juice. I went to advanced to get a new battery and when i got it back i put it in and sparks flew and it smoked like crazy. I put the positive on then put the negative on. thats when it started. the termanial got so hot it melted the negative battery post a little. i am 100% sure it was hooked up right.(pos. to pos./neg. to neg.) i am clueless on what to do. i did get a battery that had more cold cranking amps. any help would be great.
