I see the arguments in the comment that I should have used 1 or 2 or popped it. The reason you learn to smoothly let out the clutch, is if you have a short distance you will have to use 1st gear. If you just pop your clutch in 1st gear, in a short distance of a couple of feet, the car will just jerk to a stop. So the reason this vid is showing 3rd gear is I wanted to show you on video, how to smoothly bring up the clutch and that is easier to show in 3rd gear over a longer distance (for the video). That is part of the skill knowing when to use 1st or 2nd or when to pop it or feather it or how to do it in reverse. *Bump your car with another car:* th-cam.com/video/ejj645sShTk/w-d-xo.html *Push the car yourself to start:* th-cam.com/video/uU9NdbLitaw/w-d-xo.html *Do it in reverse* : th-cam.com/video/d79wI1YUel4/w-d-xo.html *Push Button start* : th-cam.com/video/679VR-j5bgE/w-d-xo.html
I was told to do this in second and pop the clutch... I think. I've only ever needed to do it one time, and I'm not totally sure what I even did correctly. This makes it look super easy.
I have done this in the middle of jam packed traffic at a stop light. I was the person who opened the drivers door, pushed my own car into rolling, jumped back in, push in clutch, jam it into 2nd gear and pop the clutch. Engine starts with a jolt. That is way life was in the good days. Driving was a problem solving, hands on experience. Manual transmissions totally rule.
My mother used to do this all the time when me and my sisters were little kids,in her little green Pinto,all with us kids in the car too. Lmao How very dangerous,though.
Thank you so much for this i was stuck at 4:30am middle of nowhere nobody would stop and help i pushed my car to the end of the road i was on and went down a huge long hill and tried this twice and boom! I was freezing cold for like an hour and a half and TH-cam'd this before my phone died THANK YOU
Today i got my drivers license, and I wanted to tell you a huge Thank you. Your videos helped me a lot in learning process, because you get straight to the point, what is rare nowadays. Again Thank You!
You are the best for not doing the classic TH-camr “what’s going on guys my names car man and here are today’s sponsors.......” my phone had almost no charge and this video saved me, Thankyou
@@ryantoomey611 Normally a lower gear means faster spin. So my guess is that first gear is best. You dont even have to stop if you do it in first gear because its like normal accelerating. And actually, you can do it without even using the clutch. It should work.
I’m a 48 yo Black woman who had to teach this to a young man a few weeks ago. He was so shocked! Great video! Wish o could send this to home for future reference.
I went out today to my friends house on my way back stopped at the side of the road to get something to eat after getting what I wanted got in the car and didn’t realise my lights were on luckily it was down hill I watched this video and it really helped thank you🙏🏾🙏🏾
I drove a VW caddy the little 1/2 pickup deal, no starter for a year I just bumped it off. No electronics on the car, mechanical diesel 50 mpg I wish I had another one I swear lol. Be careful out there buddy, and remember, put it in second get a roll and brrrt away ya go lol ✌️ 🇺🇸
I've always done it in first...I can imagine third is a better idea for less jerking as the car starts up. Never thought of that. Also, I'm used to just letting the clutch out fast. Never thought about slow release! And luckily this was on a hill, i've had to run out, push and run back in lol.
ha with my old car it was so light I have done that too push run and get in I was thinking to show how to do that but this new car I got is too heavy for me to push lol
In 2010, my friend’s friend wanted to start car like this and he asked me if I knows driving and could start for him. I said yes and three guys give push to car including him and I hit pole. I did not know driving lmao.
This really helped me! My dad couldn't kick-start my car for me cos his archeles heel is stuffed and his leg is on a cast. So I had to do it myself and I got it on the first try! Fortunately my car was facing downwards on our driveway so I could roll the car easily. Thank you so much 🥰🙏
I didn't know you could do this until my dad did it. We have a diesel Accord, and all you need is second and it doesn't shake and rattle like in this video. It just starts and it's as if you were moving smoothly.
Lol this saved my ass. When I first bought my Jetta, it already had a weak battery. I was at a freeway exit and it had an incline. I stalled it, and it wouldn't start back up. Everyone behind me was getting mad and started beeping at me. So I put it in reverse, held the clutch, rolled backwards hoping no one was coming up the incline, and popped the clutch and it worked. At the next intersection I was so relieved and happy. I was sweating the rest of the way back with my heart racing. One of the biggest reasons I love manuals.
Note, you have to put it in 3rd gear because if you put it in low gear and the car gets going it's going to "jump" hard when the car turns on. and remember the clutch, it's going to be hard to push the car if it's you don't engage the clutch. and be ready with the brakes, your car might lunge forward a considerable distance. You can also get it into neutral, get the car rolling. and when it's quite fast enough put it in 3rd. also works but it's basically the same principal just adjust to what you feel like you can do the best.
I know how it’s done the car rolling is acting like the starter. By keeping it in gear that spins the engine over. And keeping the key on run makes sure there’s power to coil to spark once spark happens engine runs. Also the belt goes around the alternator and when the engine is turning it’s moving that belt over the alternator creating power.
2. gear is the best for push roll. and it has to be done carefully. otherwise trigger belt can jump from eccentric cogwheel. by the way you are right its so bad push on video
Learned this from a random man in DC while me and my college friends broke down lol he gave me directions and pushed me off a hill and said good luck 😅
I did this on a tractor when I was 15 and had no idea what I was doing. The tractor had been sitting in the garage for a year and a half it was completely dead, I had heard somewhere that you can roll start a manual car, so I thought to myself 'why not manual a tractor?' luckily I was already on a hill. It was a stupid designed tractor, the clutch and the brake were the same pedal, if you push the brake pedal 1/4 of the way down it would release the clutch, if you push it past there it was the brake pedal. This was also the only pedal on the tractor, once you're in gear you're going.
I was in high school, orientation day. It was rainy and nasty. I accidentally left my lights on, come back to the car and it is completely dead. Ask my friends if they can help me push my Truck down the hill. I went down two full banks, almost hit 3 cars and a tree. I got the car started though! They couldn't jump my car cause I was surrounded with cars and we couldn't get it close enough.
yo thank you so much my moms car was dead and i started it quick. and i think putting in second gear is better because you will be moving slowly to start it
M1NH5AN3 not if it's another pedal you slam down on to and it creates an isolated spark in a closed chamber except for it's little wires that leads to the battery
Tito Jesusmane motorcycle kick starters turn over the crank mechanically, not like the automobile floor starters seen in trucks... I'm thinking he means mechanical foot start.
Sorry for the noobish question. If I pop-start my vehicle, will it bypass the starter of the vehicle? Is it possible to pop-start a manual transmission vehicle that has a broken starter? Yes, I did ask the same question two different ways. Thank you for reading this comment. Especially, thank you for answering the questions.
rtfm read the manual, not all cars are allowed to be started this way; older cars are ok with this but newer cars may take some damage; don't do it if it isn't allowed because there are some other side effects (read the manual). This starting method was/is comon with some bikes and older cars (but in the first or the second gear)
If the manual makes no mention of whether this bypasses the starter, is it safe to assume the starter is bypassed? To put this question in proper perspective, I am a bit of a computer technician. I own a device called a static-discharge bracelet. It comes with a manual. The manual makes no mention of the fact, that if the computer is on, there is a decent chance using the bracelet will kill you. Every book talking about using the bracelet mentions this fact, with the major exception of the book included with the purchase of the bracelet. The owner's manual for the Nissan Pathfinder does recommend pop starting the vehicle, if the vehicle will not start. However, it barely says anything about it. This suggests to me, it will bypass the starter, but I am still not sure. If it does not mention it, is it safe to pop start the vehicle when the starter needs to be replaced?
+losttownstreet what damage does it do on newer vehicles and what's wrong with pop-starting??? Pop-starting a vehicle has the same concept of hand starting a portable generator except with the use of a starting motor. If you have a good battery, it can provide continuous power to the spark plugs which is in-sync with every cycle of the piston( car rolling motion). It's just a nuisance if you have a broken starter motor but it is safe and doable to pop-start your car even the newer ones. For Automatics, it would probably be difficult because you need to spin that torque converter at a certain rpm to transmit power from the engine to the transmission.
I do it in 2nd and just pop the clutch If I need to go up hill then I put it in reverse and do the same though be ready to brake as my car is rolling backwards instead of forwards.
I don’t have a car that has a push button ignition, but try to, attempt to turn the car on by pushing the button. I think it will put the car into the “on” position. And then you just do the same thing here. But don’t do what she said here, “put the car third gear.” Instead, put the car in second gear, get up to 5-10mph or faster, then let go of the clutch. If the car starts, add some gas just to make sure it stays on.
A while back I had a shitty 1991 Toyota Celica, it was a good reliable car but it had a dead battery so it would go flat often and I had to push and start the car all at once lol. It was fun. Usually I’ll try to push the car to the closest slope, let it role and then running back to the car and starting it. Or just push it as hard as I could until I can’t catch up with the car moving so I jump back as fast as I could.
This video is really helpful. Awhile ago my car's battery got drained and wont start. Luckily, i came across this video. It helped me navigate the incident. Thank you :)))
Angel Gutierrez I wouldn’t “push it off a cliff” lol. Since it’s working now, find a decent hill where you can practice this in second or first gear. Turn the key to “On”, hold both brake and clutch, put in first or second, then release the brake. Once the car starts rolling (5mph) release the clutch. You should feel a sudden jerk then the engine should start.
Anyone watching this, if the car is rolling back for whatever reason like my was (I was facing up the hill when my car wouldn’t start) make sure it’s in reverse and don’t let go slowly kick start it and be ready to press the break and put in netrual.
There are a few guys here that do all these things by themselves : push, get back in and do remaining steps. I am looking for a video that shows those things; it would be fun to watch, although not fun at all for him whom does the push start by himself.
1st gear there more engine braking when you bring up the clutch the car will want to jerk to a stop very hard so you may have to try 2 or 3 times before the car starts up, if you don't have room use 1st if you have room use 2nd or 3rd it should start easy every time.

Use 2nd gear it's easier cause you won't need much momentum as in 3rd gear.
Yes but sometimes 2nd gear can't spin the engine fast enough to start it.

Anthony Gonsalves how can you push a car in first gear?
booty eater you push it whilst it's in neutral, then once you get back in the car you put in first whilst engaging the clutch.
3rd is probably too high. The low speed and revs would surely stall the engine and you're back to where you started?

the car jerking is the scary part xD
FaZe CrAzY626 That's just what happens when you're in 3rd gear (or any gear that's too high for your speed) below ~24kph / 15mph
I agree... if it was a gasoline powered car (which it sounds like it was) then 2nd gear would've been more than enough.
I didn't know you could do this until my dad did it. We have a diesel Accord, and all you need is second and it doesn't shake and rattle like in this video. It just starts and it's as if you were moving smoothly.

We called this “pop the clutch”. Everyone I knew had a manual and knew how to do this.
Jay White So I just push it off a cliff and put it in second gear? My starter is going bad so I may need to do this in the future...
Angel Gutierrez I wouldn’t “push it off a cliff” lol. Since it’s working now, find a decent hill where you can practice this in second or first gear. Turn the key to “On”, hold both brake and clutch, put in first or second, then release the brake. Once the car starts rolling (5mph) release the clutch. You should feel a sudden jerk then the engine should start.
Who said I had power steering or breaking to begin with
how different will it be with the push start/stop ignition switch instead of key?
No more turnig the key anymore? Respect

@@TjSi and have a manual transmission :-)
I didn't know how to do that. That's COOL
I kept searching for where were the notifications on my account
2. gear is the best for push roll. and has to be done carefully. otherwise trigger belt can jump from eccentric cogwheel.
Anyone watching this, if the car is rolling back for whatever reason like my was (I was facing up the hill when my car wouldn’t start) make sure it’s in reverse and don’t let go slowly kick start it and be ready to press the break and put in netrual.
This is good plus on a 1951 chevy hydromatic transmition you can do the same thing .
I wish they still made those shoes
But is it possible to do if the battery completely died? i mean not even dashboard lights up.
Really helpful man 👊
There are a few guys here that do all these things by themselves : push, get back in and do remaining steps. I am looking for a video that shows those things; it would be fun to watch, although not fun at all for him whom does the push start by himself.
I have done it a lot in the lighter older civic maybe I will make a video I have never seen a video of it.

Thanks, it would be fun to watch.
Why 3rd gear wouldn't 2nd or 1st go smoother
1st gear there more engine braking when you bring up the clutch the car will want to jerk to a stop very hard so you may have to try 2 or 3 times before the car starts up, if you don't have room use 1st if you have room use 2nd or 3rd it should start easy every time.
In this instance the gear ratios are reversed since the engine is not providing the power.
2:03 disagree
pop the clutch
pop it like its hot

AzyleeZ Studio why? A lot of car channels say to let it off slowly
YSAmmo
Issa joke don’t worry
Panda One ah fair enough lol
let the clutch out slowly? Are you not supposed to drop the clutch when push starting?
what happens if i don't slowly let off the clutch and u just let it off fast?
Is it possible to do this in an automatic ? My battery is low so it only shows my dash lights and won’t start the engine
why would you go 3rd gear, when putting it in 2nd would jolt it awake too.
Same car but I did that with gear in reverse.
