How long does it take to charge a car battery that’s low,with a 3amp ever last battery charger?

I would leave it overnight. That small a charger will have to work hard to charge the battery. Replace battery and save yourself battery problems in the future.

I recently did not pass my auto inspection with the new Interstate Battery I recently purchased for my 2002 Ford Escape. I was told that I need to drive 150 more miles before all aspects of the battery...

NO - sounds like the battery needs to be charged - a new fully charged battery will measure 12.6 volts - if you are not getting this voltage then the battery is not fully charged - driving the vehicle will charge the battery if the charging system is working correctly, but the battery should have been fully charged when you purchased it - batteries will loose charge sitting on a shelf and the best shops keep the batteries they have for sale charged weekly if they don't sell them faster than that - good luck :O)

My spouse had to get out 1996 ford explorer boosted while i was at work,so that evening i tested the battery it had a charge of 12.4 and is about 5 years old so i bought a new battery ,i put the new...

A new battery should have approx 12.62 fully charged
It could be slightly more
If you ever see 13 volts, on an old battery, it is gone

You need a min of 12.5, to do any testing of your vehicle, or you charge it
It should hold 12.5 or more for 3 or 4 weeks,then charge, if you let the truck sit
unused.

Dash says battery not charging

Alternator is what charges the battery. The alternator isn't putting out enough of amps to charge your battery and you will get a light or gauge reading that the voltage is low.

325ci wouldn't turn on so I got a jump and then when I turn it of

A working alternator can try to charge a bad battery but won't. Have the battery and charging system checked with a machine. Also note: your alternator is not designed to charge a battery. It is made to maintain the state of charge present in the battery. If the battery has been drained, then jumped, the alternator can put a surface charge there but will never fully charge the battery...This is only done with an external battery charger. Not doing this will over-work the alternator and shorten battery life!
