Best Answer

Yes, by using it to short the solenoid. It's dangerous and can cause fire.

You can engage the starter with a screwdriver and crank the engine over but you would still have to "hot wire" the ignition system to run the engine.

What is a long reach screwdriver?

Every screwdriver has a handle. You hold the handle and turn it to tighten or loosen a screw. Sometimes your screw might be in a tight place that your hand can't get to such as inside of a car hood. You use a long reach screwdriver because the shaft above the handle is larger than a typical screwdriver. A typical screwdriver shaft is about 5 inches. A long reach screwdriver is bigger. Maybe 12 inches or 2 feet long. It's just a long screwdriver. I can't believe you would as this question
