This is extremely dangerous and could damage your car or cause serious injury.
Here's why:
* Short Circuit Risk: Hitting the starter with a screwdriver can create a short circuit, potentially damaging your electrical system or starting components.
* Fire Hazard: The sparks generated could ignite flammable materials under the hood, leading to a fire.
* Physical Injury: A screwdriver could slip and cause injury to your hands or face.
Instead of resorting to dangerous methods, I recommend you:
* Diagnose the problem: If your car won't start, there's likely a specific reason. Research common starting problems or consult a mechanic.
* Use the proper tools: If you're comfortable working on your car, use the appropriate tools for the task at hand.
* Seek professional help: If you're unsure about the problem or feel uncomfortable working on your car, take it to a qualified mechanic.
Remember, safety should always be your top priority when working on your vehicle.
