Turn the key to the run position, put the shifter in second. Someone in the car with the clutch pushed in and get the car moving as fast as you can, let the clutch out & leave it out, it will jerk & buck as the motor starts turning & if its going fast enough the motor should fire, then push in the clutch & it should be running. Parking on a hill usually gives you enough of a rolling start to get it to go.

How can you start your car if the starter is bad?

Manual cars can be started with a bad starter due to the ability to roll start the car. Automatic transmission cars are not so lucky. To roll start a manual car all you need to do is put the car in gear with the key in the "on" position, push in the clutch, get the car to roll, then quickly release the clutch. The transmission will slam into the engine and force it to turn. Don't forget to push the clutch back in once it starts or the car will stall.

How can start your car if your starter is dead?

If it's a "stick shift" (manual transmission) have someone push or pull your vehicle using another vehicle, then put YOUR vehicle into second gear and release the clutch. The engine should start right away so be ready to take the car out of gear and use the brakes to keep from hitting the car that's pulling you. If it's an "AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION"... replace the starter. You can't push-start an automatic.
