Yup. The terminals are in the engine bay. Do not try it from the battery itself.
Positive under red cover, negative looks like a bare metal hexagon shaped rod near passenger fender. |

90 minutes? Wow. I let my car sit in winter and only needed like 15-20 minutes while revving the donor car a bit. New battery time?

If you need a new battery zero2sixtyZ is the resident battery expert.
I think he meant he let it sit with all lights off for an hour and a half and the battery recovered enough to supply the current needed to get the engine to turn over. not charging for 1.5h. There should be no reason to charge for that long. Just hook em up wait a couple minutes and crank.
