1. Prepare the car. Put the car in neutral, turn off the ignition, and release the parking brake.
2. Find a safe place to push the car. You will need enough room to get the car moving and enough distance before any obstacles.
3. Recruit some helpers. You will need at least one other person to help push the car. More people can help make it easier.
4. Get everyone in position. The driver should be in the car, ready to start the engine as soon as the car starts moving. The other people should be lined up behind the car, ready to push.
5. Push the car. Everyone should push the car in the direction you want it to move. When the car reaches a speed of 5-10 mph, the driver should step on the clutch and put the car in second gear.
6. Release the clutch and start the engine. As soon as the clutch is engaged, the driver should turn the key to the "start" position. The engine should start immediately.
7. Drive off. Once the engine is started, the driver should release the clutch and accelerate. The car should move forward on its own.
Here are a few tips for push-starting a manual transmission car:
- Make sure that the parking brake is released and the car is in neutral before you start pushing.
-If the car is hard to start, you may need to push it faster or for longer.
-Be careful not to turn the ignition key too far. If you turn it too far, you could damage the engine.
-Once you have started the engine, rev it up a bit to clear out any excess gas.
-If the car struggles to run smoothly, it may be necessary to drive it for a few minutes in first gear before shifting into higher gears.
